Is jasmine suitable for indoor cultivation?

1. Is it suitable for indoor breeding?

It is suitable for indoor keeping.

When it blooms, the whole house is filled with fragrance, and the volatile oils it emits can kill indoor germs and purify the air in the room. Its flowers can also make people relax and feel happy. So it is very suitable to be kept indoors.

2. Maintenance methods

1. Soil

Before raising it, you need to prepare the soil first. You can use garden soil, river sand, and then add base fertilizer to mix it. The soil should be slightly acidic to be suitable for its growth.

2. Watering

It likes moisture and is not drought-tolerant, so the soil in the pot should be kept moist at all times. In summer, water it once in the morning and evening every day, and spray water on the leaves to cool down and retain moisture. In winter, it no longer grows and requires less water. At this time, reduce watering and do not allow water to accumulate at the roots, otherwise the roots will easily rot.

3. Fertilization

During the growing season, apply it once a week; during the flowering period, apply it once every 3 days, mainly phosphorus fertilizer, and it needs to be diluted before use, otherwise it will burn the roots; and during the flowering period, you can also spray fertilizer water on the leaves to make it bloom earlier.

3. Lighting

It likes light, so if you keep it indoors, try to put it in a place with plenty of sunlight, otherwise the amount of flowering will be reduced and the fragrance of the flower will be weaker. If you raise it in the south, you only need to keep it indoors in winter, but in the north, if you keep it indoors in winter, you need to keep it warm in time.

4. Pests and diseases

Because of its fragrance, it often attracts many pests and diseases, such as scale insects, moths and other insects. Therefore, when growing it indoors, it needs timely ventilation and light to effectively reduce the chance of pests. If it is accidentally infected, spraying it with medicine can effectively prevent it.
