Cultivation methods and maintenance matters of old jasmine piles

Jasmine old pile cultivation method

1. Choose to dig up or buy old jasmine stumps that are healthy, normally developed, and free of diseases and insect pests. The roots of the selected old jasmine stumps can retain about 500 grams of original soil, and the branches should be pruned to a length of about 5 cm from the old roots. If the soil is too sticky, the roots must be washed very clean, and a relatively thick and long root should be sawed off and planted in the potting soil. New buds will soon grow.

3. From February to April in the Gregorian calendar, soak the roots of the selected old jasmine stumps in disinfected rooting liquid for 1 minute, then plant them in the cultivation medium in a container and place them outdoors. Shade them when the sun is strong. The depth of the topsoil and root system of the old jasmine stumps planted in the cultivation medium should be about 8 cm.
