When is the best time to repot the jasmine?

Winter jasmine repotting time

After several years of growth, the root system of Forsythia jasmine will become increasingly large, and the original flowerpot will be unable to support it. If it continues to be used, the roots will curl and will not be able to stretch freely. Repotting can make the plant grow more vigorously and bloom more beautifully. There is no need to repot newly purchased Forsythia jasmine.

It is best to repot Forsythia in spring and autumn. Although it can also be repotted in summer and winter, there are many things to pay attention to. In summer, it is necessary to provide shade and lower the ambient temperature. In winter, it is necessary to control the soil moisture and increase the ambient temperature. Repotting at this time is more troublesome.

Methods and steps for repotting jasmine

1. Treatment before repotting

Before repotting the winter jasmine, you should first knock on the walls of the pot to separate the soil and the roots as much as possible, then pour in plenty of water to lubricate the roots so that they are not easily damaged when moved out.

2. Prepare the flower pot

When choosing a flowerpot for Forsythia, it is best to use a clay pot made of natural materials. This type of flowerpot can regulate soil moisture and also have a cooling effect in summer.

3. Choose soil matrix

Forsythia is suitable for growing in fertile and loose soil. When preparing the soil, you can choose to mix black soil and peat soil, and then add an appropriate amount of humus fermentation liquid to further increase the fertility.

4. Basin operation

Finally, leave a space in the soil of the flowerpot that is larger than the roots of the plant, put the plant in, then cover it with loose soil, and water it with an appropriate amount of water to complete the transplanting.
