The correct way to grow jasmine

Jasmine is a very popular flower. Its flowers are white and have a fresh fragrance. Many people want to grow it. Here we will introduce to you the correct method of growing jasmine.

1. Soil

Jasmine is not very demanding on soil and prefers loose, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. When preparing the soil, you can add some humus, garden soil and sand and mix them evenly. This combination can improve the soil's air permeability and water retention.

2. Lighting

Jasmine is a plant that likes strong light. More sunshine every day is conducive to flowering. In order to make the jasmine grow more luxuriantly and have thicker branches. After the flowering period, you can place it in a semi-shaded place or a place with sufficient scattered light for about half a month. Let it grow its branches fully first. Then place it in a well-lit place, get plenty of sunlight, and it will soon bloom.

3. Temperature

Jasmine reaches its peak flowering when the temperature is between 18 and 30 degrees. However, the temperature that promotes flowering is approximately between 22 and 28 degrees. Careful and meticulous care will make the jasmine bloom all over the pot.

4. Watering

Jasmine is afraid of lack of water, and its leaves will wilt if it lacks water. The general principle of watering is to water it thoroughly in time when the soil surface is dry, and this way there will be no problems.

5. Fertilization

Jasmine flowers bloom continuously as they grow. After one crop of flowers blooms, they are pruned, and then new buds grow, and then they can bloom again. Its flowering performance is very strong. Try to choose fertilizers with high phosphorus content and other elements, such as Huaduoduo No. 2. Supplementing it 2 to 3 times a month can ensure that it has sufficient phosphorus and continues to bloom. If there is slow-release fertilizer , you can sprinkle some slow-release fertilizer on the surface of the potting soil.

6. Pruning

After jasmine has finished blooming, you should promptly cut off the remaining flowers, as well as the crossed branches, weak branches, and overgrown branches that affect ventilation and hinder light. This will allow the potted plants to fully receive light, save nutrients, and promote the germination of new buds on the side branches.
