Jasmine is a flower that many people like, its leaves are green, the flowers are white and elegant, the fragrance is rich, the family raises a pot, the house is full of fragrance, many people like jasmine, but they are always not good, and it is easy to not bloom, in fact, it is not difficult to want jasmine to bloom, learn these tricks, the branches are full of flowers, and the fragrance is rich.
1. Get Plenty Of Light
Jasmine is a typical strong positive flower, and there is a folk saying of “sun-immortal jasmine”, which means that the more jasmine is sun-dried, the easier it is to bloom. If the light is insufficient, jasmine will not only grow thin branches, but also have no flowers or flowers, and the smell is light. Therefore, if you want jasmine to bloom more, you must give it sufficient light, even in hot summer.
If the jasmine light in your home is insufficient, you can move it to the best location in the house, or move it to outdoor maintenance, so that it can enjoy the sun, the more sun the easier it is to bloom.
2. Trim Frequently
Jasmine has another feature, that is, it is very resistant to pruning, its new flowering ability is particularly strong, if the branches are not pruned for a long time, it will become very long, and the flowering ability will decline, and jasmine flowers are blooming on new branches, old branches have weak flowering ability, if not pruned, old branches are more and more, new branches are less and less, jasmine flowers will bloom less and less.
Therefore, if you want jasmine to bloom more, you must prune frequently. After each flower, it is necessary to prune the residual flower and 2-3 pairs of leaves under the residual flower in time, reduce nutrient consumption and promote new branches. After pruning jasmine, do not immediately fertilize it, and then fertilize it after it grows new buds.
3. Apply Thin Fertilizer Frequently
Jasmine has a long flowering period, a large amount of flowers, and a relatively high demand for fertilizer. If nutrients are insufficient, jasmine flowers will flower less or even not bloom. Therefore, if you want jasmine to bloom more, you must ensure sufficient nutrients.
To fertilize jasmine, we should follow the principle of thin fertilizer and frequent application, not too much fertilizer at one time, nor can we apply concentrated fertilizer, which is easy to burn the root, resulting in yellow leaves, fallen leaves, and even plant death.
In the growth period of jasmine, it can be applied once every 10 days or so to compound fertilizer or fermented cake fertilizer water to promote the growth of branches.
Before entering the flowering period, that is, around April, start to supplement it with phosphate and potassium fertilizer, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate or Huaduo 2, every 10 days or so, and spray the leaves at the same time, which can make jasmine flower buds differentiate more and bloom more.
4. Keep The Soil Slightly Acidic
Jasmine is an acid-loving flower. If the soil is alkaline, jasmine will grow poorly, with yellow leaves, leaf loss, and no flowering. Therefore, if you want jasmine to grow vigorously and bloom more, you must maintain the acidity of the soil.
Usually can be every 1-2 months, to water it once ferrous sulfate solution, not only to supplement iron, but also to adjust the pH of the soil, to prevent soil alkalization, yellow leaves, leaf drop.
In addition, the water for watering flowers is also best rainwater, river water and other acidic water, if you can only use tap water, it is best to dry for 2 days before use, which can volatilize part of the chlorine gas, but also make the water temperature close to room temperature, reducing the damage to the roots.
5. Water Properly
Jasmine likes a humid growing environment, but it can not be watered too much, otherwise it is easy to cause stagnant water to rot the roots, but it can not be short of water, water shortage will also affect the growth and flowering of jasmine, so watering jasmine must be reasonable.
To water jasmine, you can follow the principle of “see dry see wet”, such as the surface of the basin soil two or three centimeters dry and then water, water is poured through, do not pour half of the water, usually can often observe the state of the basin soil, if found that the surface of the basin soil is white, the leaves are slightly soft, that is lack of water, to water in time.
In the growing season and flowering period of jasmine, its demand for water is relatively large, you can appropriately increase the frequency of watering, keep the basin soil slightly wet, but can not accumulate water, when the air is dry, but also often spray water around the plant, increase the air humidity, can make the leaves more green, more flowers.
6. Change Pots After Flowers
Jasmine likes fertile, loose, well-drained sandy soil, if the soil is compact, sticky, poor permeability, jasmine will grow poorly, yellow leaves, leaf drop, no flowering situation, so, after flowers every year, it is best to change the pot soil for jasmine.
When changing the pot, the rotten, aging and shriveled roots should be pruned away to promote the growth of new roots. The pot soil can be mixed with leaf soil, garden soil and river sand in accordance with the ratio of 4:3:2 and planted evenly. Some decomposed sheep dung and bone meal can also be added to the bottom of the pot as the base fertilizer, which can make the jasmine grow more vigorously and bloom more.
7. Control The Temperature Properly
Jasmine likes a warm growing environment, its optimal growth temperature is between 20-35 degrees, if the temperature is too low, jasmine will grow slowly, and even yellow leaves, leaf loss, no flowering.
Therefore, if you want jasmine to grow vigorously and bloom more, you must give it a warm growth environment, if the temperature is too low, you must move it to a warm indoor maintenance in time, and keep the room temperature above 15 degrees in order to allow jasmine to grow normally and bloom.
8. Pest Control
Jasmine in the growth process, it will also encounter some pests and diseases, such as red spiders, aphids, leaf spots, etc. These pests and diseases will affect the growth and flowering of jasmine, so it must be timely prevention and control.
Usually you can observe the growth state of jasmine, if you find that there are red spiders, aphids and other pests on the leaves, you can use avermectin, imidacloprid and other drugs spray control.
If you find diseased spots on the leaves, you can use carbendazim, mancozeb and other drugs to spray control, spray once every 7-10 days, continuous spraying 2-3 times, you can control the disease well.
9. Good Ventilation
Poor ventilation is also an important reason for poor growth of jasmine and less flowering, poor ventilation, not only easy to breed pests and diseases, but also affect the photosynthesis and respiration of plants, resulting in poor growth.
Therefore, usually maintenance of jasmine, it must be placed in a well-ventilated position, especially indoor maintenance of jasmine, must often open the window ventilation, so that the air circulation, jasmine can grow vigorously, bloom more.
10. Jasmine Pruning Precautions
Jasmine pruning should pay attention to the time, pruning time is best in sunny weather, can not be pruned in rainy days, rainy days pruning, the wound is easy to infection bacteria, causing black rot, after pruning, the wound do not dip in water, put in a well-ventilated position, so that the wound heal as soon as possible.
Do not re-cut jasmine flower pruning, especially before spring germination, do not do large pruning, otherwise it will affect the growth of new buds, resulting in delayed flowering, or less flowering, pruning, only need to cut off weak branches, dead branches, crossed branches, overlapping branches, and barren branches.
After pruning, it is necessary to fertilize in time, supplement nutrients, promote the growth of new buds, and let the jasmine flower return as soon as possible.
Conclusion
If you want more jasmine flowers to bloom, you must do the above 11 points, sufficient light, frequent pruning, frequent application of thin fertilizer, keep the soil slightly acidic, reasonable watering, change the pot after flowers, reasonable temperature control, good ventilation, pay attention to pruning matters, if the jasmine flowers do not bloom, you must find the cause in time and treat the symptoms, the jasmine will grow vigorously, blossom all over the branches, and the fragrance is rich.
