How to grow jasmine? These cultivation tips are worth learning

Jasmine is suited to growing in a humid, hot environment with good ventilation, so during cultivation you should let it grow in a spot with plenty of sunlight. With enough sunlight it will have lush branches and leaves; without enough sunlight its leaves will be sparse and unhealthy.

Jasmine is best grown in loose soil, which has very good air permeability; grown in this kind of soil, the roots of the jasmine will breathe very freely. It prefers soil that is slightly acidic, which is even better. Ordinary sandy soil or semi-sandy soil is very suitable for growing this flower.

Jasmine is a plant that likes moisture, but it also fears standing water in the pot. If there is too much standing water in the pot, the roots will have trouble breathing and may rot from being soaked. If you keep it outside in summer, be sure to pour out any accumulated water in the pot promptly when it rains.

In hot weather, you need to water this flower twice a day to prevent the leaves from wilting from lack of water. If the leaves curl, spray them with some water.

Jasmine often suffers from pests and diseases such as scale insects, so pay attention to checking it regularly, and spray medicine promptly to control them once you find them.

During cultivation, this flower should be fertilized twice a month; you can apply bone meal, raw cake meal and so on. There is no need to apply nitrogen fertilizer; applying some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer is enough. Nitrogen fertilizer promotes leaf growth, while phosphorus and potassium fertilizer promotes flowering and can also extend the flowering period. If the branches and leaves are lush but it does not bloom, then control the amount of fertilizer and water applied and increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.

In summer this flower grows very fast, so you need to prune its branches and leaves often. When pruning, if you want it to grow short and sturdy, you can start cutting the branches about 10 cm above the base, and the new branches that grow out will be short, sturdy and broad. After flowering, the branches at the flowering spots should also be cut off promptly to avoid consuming more nutrients.
