How to extend the jasmine flowering period? These methods make the flowers last longer
1. Fertilizing
To extend the jasmine flowering period, you should fertilize reasonably. During its peak flowering period, strengthen water and fertilizer management, and follow the principle of applying light fertilizer frequently, generally once every 2 days, using fully decomposed liquid fertilizer. It is best to fertilize in the evening; with sufficient nutrients, the flowering time will be longer and there will be more flowers.
2. Light
Jasmine loves sunlight, and only with enough sunlight will its flowering period be longer. If it is kept in a shaded environment for a long time during care, it will not only affect the flowering period but also hinder its normal growth. You can place it on a balcony for care, so you don't have to worry about water accumulation during the rainy season.
3. Pruning
If you want to extend the flowering period and let it bloom more, you must prune promptly. All thin, weak branches should be pruned away, and during the flowering period you should clean up spent and faded flowers. Only by pruning the newly sprouted branches at the right time will it produce flower buds.
4. Pinching
When new branches of jasmine form buds, keep 4-5 leaves and pinch off the tips. When pinching, do it in sequence, and leave some that do not need pinching. After flowering, prune and care for it for a period of time, and before flower bud differentiation, promptly supplement phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, which helps it bloom.
