As a popular household flower , jasmine care is particularly important in winter. Many flower lovers can easily grow jasmine in summer, but in winter, jasmine often finds it difficult to survive, which is really regrettable. Let’s learn how to manage jasmine in winter. 1. Pruning tips Winter is the best time to do "heavy pruning" of jasmine, rather than just "light pruning". Winter pruning can cut off a large number of jasmine branches to reduce the consumption of nutrients in winter and accumulate nutrients for flowering next year. When the temperature drops to around 5 degrees, you can start heavy pruning, keeping branches of about 20 centimeters. In the north, where there is heating indoors, the temperature is higher, so the amount of pruning can be reduced appropriately. 2. Lighting requirements Jasmine needs full sun, even in winter. Long-term lack of light will cause jasmine to grow too tall and affect flowering. Therefore, once the weather clears up in winter, the jasmine should be moved into the sun. 3. Reasonable watering Jasmine requires less water in winter, and the principle of watering is "better less than more." Excessive watering may lead to root rot or frostbite. Before watering, check the soil moisture and water only if the soil is dry. 4. Maintain ventilation Jasmine is susceptible to insect infestation, especially in an enclosed environment with poor air circulation. In winter, windows should be opened regularly to ventilate the house, maintain air circulation, and reduce the risk of pests. At the same time, spray the leaves regularly to increase air humidity and prevent yellowing leaves and dry tips. 5. Fertilization strategy In winter, organic fertilizer should be the main fertilizer , which can be used as base fertilizer when repotting or applied directly into the soil. Organic fertilizers such as sheep manure, cow manure, chicken manure, etc. release their fertility more slowly than chemical fertilizers. They are suitable for use in winter and will not burn seedlings, while providing nutrients for spring. The above are the key points for managing jasmine in winter. Doing these things well will ensure that they are properly cared for in winter and lay a good foundation for their growth and flowering next year.
