How to grow jasmine

Jasmine Growing Conditions

Jasmine likes a warm environment, is not frost-resistant, and has poor cold resistance, but can adapt to higher temperatures. It begins to germinate when the temperature is 19 degrees. When the temperature continues to rise, jasmine can grow better when the temperature exceeds 25℃.

How to grow jasmine

During the growth period of jasmine, water it frequently to keep the soil moist, but do not let water accumulate in the pot soil. Apply thin fertilizer in time. If it grows vigorously, cut off the old branches and yellow leaves, and cut off the branches that grow too densely. There is no need to trim the roots when repotting. Water it appropriately after repotting.

Jasmine watering

Jasmine needs to be provided with sufficient water in spring to meet its needs for sprouting new branches. In summer, water evaporates rapidly, so it can be watered in the morning and evening. In autumn, water should be controlled moderately to help accumulate nutrients and make it grow stronger. In winter, reduce watering and keep the soil slightly moist.

Jasmine Fertilization

Spring, summer and autumn are the peak growth seasons for jasmine, and sufficient fertilizer needs to be provided. Fertilizer can be stopped during the winter dormancy period. During the growing season, apply two layers of thin alum fertilizer water. In addition, before winter, spray 1-2 times of potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution to help it survive the winter better.

Jasmine pest and disease control

If the jasmine leaf borer appears, you can choose to use multi-worm miticide, miticide, triamcinolone or other avermectin pesticides. For the jasmine leaf borer, when natural enemies cannot control its damage, you can choose to spray trichlorfon, cypermethrin emulsifiable concentrate, cypermethrin and cypermethrin.

How to grow jasmine at home

Jasmine is suitable for planting in soil rich in organic matter and breathable. It can be watered in the morning and evening in summer, but water accumulation should be avoided. Watering should be controlled in winter. The maintenance environment should have sufficient light and keep warm in winter. Fertilize twice a month in summer, do a good job of pruning, and pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and pests.

Jasmine maintenance precautions

Potted jasmine needs to be repotted every two years. When repotting, you can trim off the rotten and old roots, and put some bone meal and water chestnut powder in the pot as base fertilizer. Water it frequently during the growing period, but do not spray water on the flowers during the flowering period. Avoid rain in the rainy season. Apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizers before winter to enhance the plant's resistance to cold.
