How to grow jasmine in summer

Watering

Jasmine requires special attention when watering in summer. Jasmine itself is not drought-tolerant, but it is also afraid of waterlogging, so when watering, keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. When the weather is good, you can water the plants every day, once in the morning and once in the evening, and pay attention to spraying water. However, when it rains a lot, you need to be careful not to get wet in the rain, and there should not be water accumulation in the pot. It is best to drain the water in time.

Fertilization

Summer is the peak growth period for jasmine. When fertilizing, in order to meet the needs of flowering, you should apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, as well as flower fertilizers with multiple elements, twice a month. Note that when jasmine grows in the summer, sometimes the leaves grow vigorously but do not bloom. This is because too much nitrogen fertilizer is applied, causing the branches and leaves to grow too long. At this time, you should control the water and fertilizer, increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, and move the plant to a sunny and ventilated place for maintenance.

prune

Jasmine grows very fast in summer and needs to be pruned in time. When pruning, keep the lower branches and leaves, which can encourage the sprouting of new branches. The new branches should be pinched in time, which can allow them to grow more side branches and bloom more.

When the jasmine flowers fade in summer, you need to cut off the remaining flowers in time. This can reduce the consumption of nutrients and promote the growth of new branches.
