Jasmine has a strong flowering ability and a very fragrant smell, making it popular among many people. For新手 who have just started gardening and don't know how to care for jasmine, how should they operate and maintain it? Xiao Qi will introduce the maintenance methods for jasmine today.
First is the choice of soil for jasmine. Jasmine prefers soil with good breathability. It is best not to use garden soil at home. If you cultivate it outdoors, garden soil is fine. Indoors, try to use soil with good breathability. We can mix half river sand with half nutrient-rich soil. River sand and coal slag can both be used as particle soil, which can improve the soil's breathability and water permeability. For the other half of the nutrient-rich soil, we can use peat soil or decomposed leaf soil. This type of soil has good water retention and contains some nutrients, allowing the plant's roots to grow better.
The second point is lighting. Jasmine is a plant that loves light. If it lacks light, we will find that the branches it grows are soft and tender, the leaf spacing will increase, and it may not bloom. Therefore, if you want jasmine to grow well and bloom more, it must be placed in a place with plenty of light, all year round.
The third point is watering and fertilizing. Jasmine is afraid of water shortage. Insufficient water causes the leaves to wilt, and repeated water shortages can lead to dried leaves and even damaged roots that cannot be saved. The general principle of watering is to water thoroughly when the soil surface is dry. This will not cause any problems. Fertilizers should also be chosen correctly because jasmine continues to grow and bloom. After finishing blooming and pruning, it grows new buds and can bloom again. Its flowering ability is very strong. Fertilizers should preferably contain high phosphorus content without lacking other elements, such as "Flower More No. 2". Supplementing it 2-3 times a month provides adequate phosphorus, without lacking other elements, allowing the roots to grow well and the main stem to become thicker. If you have slow-release fertilizer, you can sprinkle some on the surface of the potting soil, using multi-element fertilizer, once every three months to ensure basic nutrients in the potting soil. This way, the jasmine we raise will not lack fertilizer and can grow well with abundant blooms.
Jasmine is actually easy to care for. As Xiao Qi said, don't use too large a pot, use soil with good breathability, place it in the sunniest spot, don't let it lack water, and choose the right fertilizer. Your jasmine will continue to grow and bloom continuously. After each bloom, prune promptly, leaving 1-2 pairs of leaves, and it will quickly grow new buds, which will then bloom.
The above is the complete content on how to plant jasmine and the methods and skills of jasmine cultivation, for your comprehensive understanding and reference!
