Select the right soil: to cultivate African jasmine, use loose and fertile sandy loam with good drainage. Fertilizer application: in the growing season, the fertilizer and water of the thin rotten cake shall be applied once a month, and the phosphorus and potassium fertilizer shall be applied once before flowering in May. Control temperature: give it a growth environment of 18 ℃ to 32 ℃. Make up the light: receive full light in spring and autumn, and shade in summer.

Choose the right earth

There are different requirements for cultivating African Jasmine soil in the north and south of China: in the south of China, the planting site is a loose and fertile sandy loam with good drainage. The northern potted African Jasmine can be made up of 7 parts of rotten leaf soil, 1 part of river sand, 1 part of retting organic fertilizer and 1 part of fermented sawdust.

During the growing period, loosen the soil once a month to keep the roots in a good state of permeability. Potted African Jasmine can be changed every 1 to 2 years.

Fertilizer application

In the growing season, the potted African jasmine is applied with a thin fertilizer and water of rotten cake once a month, and a phosphorus potassium fertilizer once before flowering in May, so as to promote the plants to bloom into autumn, and then apply fertilizer once or twice to supplement phosphorus and potassium, so as to have a safe winter. In order to prevent the leaves from turning yellow, 0.2% FeSO4 was added to the potted plants in the northern region during the growing season to ensure the green leaves.

African jasmine cultivation: fertilization

Keep warm and warm

African Jasmine grows well in the warm climate, the suitable temperature is 18 ℃ to 32 ℃, when the temperature is higher than 38 ℃ in summer, it will inhibit the growth of plants. Ventilate and humidify as much as possible to reduce the temperature. Some areas in the south of China can survive the winter in the open, but try to control the temperature at 3 ~ 5 ℃.

Fill up the light.

African jasmine is fond of sunshine. Its original environment is mostly semi overcast. It is potted in the family. It can receive full sunlight in spring and autumn. In summer, it is required to set up a shed for shading, or move it to the shading place, at least avoiding the direct sunlight for several hours around noon. Special attention should be paid to the fact that after a long rain from June to July, when it is sunny, the temperature suddenly rises and the light is very strong. It is necessary to do a good job of shading to prevent young shoots and young leaves from being burned.

Watering the water

African Jasmine potted plants require sufficient water, but the roots should not be waterlogged, otherwise it is easy to rot. In spring and autumn, the degree of watering is to keep the basin soil moist. In rainy season, reduce watering. Spray water once in the morning and afternoon respectively in summer to increase humidity and reduce temperature. In winter, for indoor potted African jasmine, it is appropriate to keep the basin soil moisture. When the temperature is relatively high around noon, spray water to the leaf surface appropriately.

Precautions

The African Jasmine at home was just bought in autumn and winter that year, so we should do a good job in cold prevention. Especially when the strong cold air in the north goes down to the South and there is a big drop in temperature, we must keep warm in time.

Many African Jasmine in Huayou's family will not bloom for many years. In fact, it is not a disease, but the conservation environment is different. As long as you pay attention to it in daily life, you only need to wait for it to bloom.
