How do you grow jasmine? Master the care and propagation methods, and it will bloom more than one flower

I got to know jasmine deeply back in elementary school, and I "formed a bond" with it. I still remember that back then the lovely music teacher called me up to the podium to sing "Jasmine Flower" leaning against the wall, and I sang my heart out without a hint of shyness; the gist of the lyrics: what a beautiful jasmine flower~ I will omit 500 words here. Please forgive my nonsense, let's get straight to the point. For potted jasmine, the potting soil should be a well-aerated soil, watering should be moderate at ordinary times, fertilizer must not be lacking during the flower bud formation period, and it needs plenty of light. Now let's take a detailed look together at the detailed methods for growing jasmine in home pots~

Lots and lots of jasmine flowers

Care methods

1. Soil selection: Jasmine likes loose, fertile, well-aerated soil best.

2. Watering method: Jasmine should be watered moderately at ordinary times. Too much water will turn the leaves yellow and cause root rot. If you have watered too much, for potted jasmine you can tilt the pot slightly to drain off the excess water, then loosen the soil a bit. In winter care, pay attention to controlling water; the potting soil just needs to be slightly moist, watering once every 6-8 days is enough.

3. Fertilizing method: Jasmine's flowering period is relatively long, so its fertilizer needs increase, especially during the flower bud formation period when fertilizer must not be lacking. However, do not over-fertilize either, keep it in moderation, and do not fertilize when the soil is too dry or too wet.

4. Light management: Only with sufficient sunlight can jasmine grow better. If it is kept in a shady, shaded environment for a long time, it will fail to bloom due to insufficient light. At that point you should place it in a sunny spot, apply a moderate amount of extra phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, and control the watering amount, and it will bloom.

Potted jasmine

1. Cuttage propagation: Choose healthy branches from a 1-2 year old mother plant and cut them into about 12 cm lengths, remove the lower leaves, keep 2-4 pairs of buds on each branch, insert them into a propagation tray and water thoroughly, cover with plastic film to raise the air humidity, and after about 1 month they can be transplanted for care.

2. Layering method: Make a wound on a healthy branch at about 14-15 cm, press it into the soil, and cover with about 5 cm of soil. After layering, water thoroughly, and in one month it will take root and sprout, and in about two months it can be transplanted.

Common pests and diseases

1. Southern blight: In the early stage of the disease, once discovered, clean up the diseased plants thoroughly, strengthen routine care to reduce the spread of the virus, and in the early stage of the disease you can use a diluted chlorothalonil fungicide spray for prevention and control.

2. Spider mites: If the infection with carmine spider mites is too severe, it will cause the leaves to turn yellow and even drop off. When they appear, you can use dimethoate emulsifiable concentrate or dicofol emulsifiable concentrate spray for prevention and control, spraying once a week, and about 2-3 times will have a noticeable effect.
