What causes African jasmine branches to rot and wither?

Root damage

Be careful when repotting, changing pots, transplanting and transporting, do not damage the roots or branches, and keep the root soil ball intact. Once the roots rot, the growth of the above-ground parts will be affected.

Temperature is too low

In winter, the indoor temperature in most households is above 10°C, which can basically meet the growth needs of African jasmine. When caring for the plant indoors in winter, try not to place it near cold air vents or windows. Reduce watering and don't water unless the soil is too dry. Keep the soil moisture at 20~40%, semi-dry is fine.

Even when the temperature is high in summer, do not place African jasmine under the air conditioner, as the cold wind will affect the growth of the plant.

Insufficient light

African jasmine requires sufficient light to grow. Do not place African jasmine near the wall or in a corner to avoid rotting due to poor local light or poor ventilation.

High humidity

Once a branch is found to be diseased, it should be cut off immediately to avoid harming other branches. During maintenance, pay attention to timely ventilation, reduce humidity, increase the plant's disease resistance, and avoid worsening of damage.
