Jasmine repotting and soil changing methods and precautions Jasmine repotting time and soil

Before repotting jasmine, make sure to water it thoroughly and wait 1-2 days before repotting. This will make the operation easier. When repotting, first tap the box wall gently to separate the flowerpot from the soil, then take out the plant and shake off the old soil around it, being careful not to damage the root system.

How to change the pot and soil of jasmine

1. When to change the soil

Potted jasmine grows well in a warm and humid environment. The best time to repot jasmine is in March or April each spring . The climate is mild at this time, which is more suitable for the plant to resume growth after repotting.

2. What soil to use for repotting

The soil for repotting jasmine can be mixed with sandy soil, peat soil, and humus soil . It is best to add an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer. Only with sufficient fertility can it grow more vigorously.

3. Repotting and root pruning

When repotting and pruning the roots of jasmine, the old and rotten roots should be cut off, leaving only the new roots, in order to improve the plant's absorption capacity. In addition to pruning the roots, the yellow leaves on the jasmine should also be removed to reduce water evaporation.

4. Basin operation

When planting jasmine, first fill the pot with some soil, then dip the roots of the jasmine in rooting powder and put it in the pot. Then fill the remaining soil in, hold the plant with one hand, add loam with the other hand, and finally compact the surface matrix to ensure that it fits tightly with the roots.

5. How to slow down the growth of seedlings after repotting

After repotting the jasmine, be sure to water it thoroughly until water drops seep out from the bottom of the pot, otherwise it will greatly affect the plant's recovery. After planting, pay attention to placing it in a diffused light place to adapt to the environment. After the jasmine has adapted to the pot, start adding water and fertilizer.

Things to note when repotting jasmine

When repotting jasmine, you should be careful. The roots of newly potted jasmine have weak absorption capacity, and it is difficult to absorb fertilizer even if you apply fertilizer. Applying fertilizer at this time is not only a waste of fertilizer, but also easily causes fertilizer damage to the plant and damages the root tissue structure. Therefore, it is not recommended to fertilize jasmine after potting. After the jasmine has passed the seedling acclimatization period and the potting period, it will enter the growth period, and fertilizer can be applied at this time.
