If you want to make jasmine fragrant and white, the most important detail is the daily maintenance.
There is a popular saying among flower friends, which is called "the immortal Jasmine". That is to say, jasmine is not afraid of the sun exposure at all. Even if the temperature is about to soar to 40 ℃, jasmine will continue to be exposed to the sun in nanyangtai, and the more it is exposed to the sun, the more fragrant it will be. So we must make sure that Jasmine has at least 5 hours of light every day.
The premise of letting Jasmine bask in the sun all day is to give it plenty of water. Jasmine can't stand drought, but it can't accumulate water in the basin. Don't let it rain when it rains. The temperature is high in summer. Jasmine needs to be watered twice a day at least, once in the morning and once in the evening. If you find that the leaves of jasmine curl, it is lack of water, you must water them in time.
Summer is the peak season for jasmine to bloom. Generally, more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be applied, such as peanut cake fertilizer, bone meal fertilizer, etc. About 2-3 times a month. In addition to fertilization, 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution can also be used to spray on the plants, so as to promote more buds and flowers.
Jasmine is a flower that likes acid soil, but the soil in the north is generally alkaline, so it often causes the problem of jasmine yellow leaves. In order to make the yellow leaves of jasmine return to green, it is necessary to add 0.1% ferrous sulfate or 0.3% vinegar when watering. You can avoid the yellow leaves of jasmine flowers by watering them once every 5-7 days.
To make jasmine Blossom more, pruning is necessary. No matter for the pruning of dead branches, remnant branches and long branches, or pruning of branches after flowering, it is a very important aspect.
The high temperature in summer is conducive to the flowering of jasmine. If it can be pruned in time after flowering, the pruned Jasmine branches will soon sprout new buds and give birth to new flower buds. Pruning can start with 3 - 4 pairs of leaves under the flower, which can reduce unnecessary nutrient consumption.
The flowers of jasmine usually open at the top, so some diseased branches, weak branches, bare branches and so on that usually grow out of jasmine should be cut off in time to avoid unnecessary nutrient consumption, so as to make Jasmine more lateral branches, so as to produce more flowers.
Usually we prune down the branches of jasmine, especially the branches after flowers, to use cuttings, the survival rate is very high!
1. For cuttings, we must choose semi lignified and robust branches. It is better to choose the branches that have blossomed, and the survival rate is higher
2. Cut the branch short, and cut it at an angle of 45 °. At least one pair of leaves should be kept on each branch that needs cutting, which is conducive to photosynthesis.
3. Cutting can be done with disposable paper cup. Make a small hole at the bottom of the paper cup to facilitate drainage, then fill the paper cup with sand, insert the trimmed Jasmine spikes into the sand, press with your fingers, and then pour water once. Pay attention to a cup and a spike.
4. Put the disposable paper cup in the place with sufficient scattered light for maintenance, and pay attention to watering frequently. About 40 days later, the cuttings of Jasmine can take root.
5. Put the rooted Jasmine in the pot. Basin soil can choose to dredge and ventilate slightly acid nutrient soil, which can be made of garden soil, perlite and sand in the proportion of 3:1:1.
6. After the basin is put on, water it once, put it in a cool and ventilated place for maintenance for a week, and then transfer it to the sun for normal maintenance.
7. It won't be long before the cuttings of jasmine seedlings can draw out new buds.
