How to grow purple jasmine

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: It likes high temperatures and is relatively heat-resistant. The suitable temperature for its development is between 20 and 24 degrees.

2. Watering: It likes moisture and needs to keep the soil moist and not hardened for a long time. In terms of watering, it needs an appropriate amount, otherwise it will cause water accumulation in the pot soil and cause root rot.

3. Fertilization: It grows very quickly and needs a lot of nutrients. The nutrients in the soil are far from enough, so it is necessary to supplement it with nutrients during its growth period. There are two ways to supplement nutrients. One is to fertilize the soil, and the other is to fertilize the branches and leaves. The former is used once every two weeks, and the latter is used once a month. The two can be used in combination. When fertilizing the soil, try to use fertilizers with mild effects, such as farmyard manure; liquid fertilizer should be used as foliar fertilizer.

4. Light: It likes sunlight, but cannot tolerate strong light. It needs proper shade during maintenance, and it is sufficient to ensure six hours of diffuse light every day.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: Its general method of reproduction is sowing. After the spring, sprinkle the seeds into the soil, then water them once and keep them in a temperature of about 20 degrees. Seedlings will emerge in about three days. Do not transplant them after germination. Wait until three leaves grow before transplanting.

2. Weeding: If you are maintaining plants on a large scale, weeds are likely to grow in the land and need to be weeded in time. Herbicides can be used for weeding. There are two times to use them, one when the weeds just start to grow and the other when the weeds are about to produce seeds. When weeding, you need to pay attention to the fact that the herbicide must be diluted according to the instructions to avoid damage to the plants due to excessive concentration.

3. Problem Diagnosis

1. Pests: It is generally not infected by pests. If pests are found, you can use carbendazim to spray it. The agent needs to be diluted before spraying.

2. Pathology: If you find that the branches and leaves are drooping and the color of the flowers is becoming lighter, it may be due to excessive light. At this time, you need to provide appropriate shade for the plants to solve this problem.

IV. Other issues

1. Toxicity: It is non-toxic and can be safely kept at home without any effects.

2. Can it be cultivated indoors: It can be cultivated indoors. It does not require much light. Placing it in a bright place such as the balcony at home can meet its light needs. In addition, it has a good ability to absorb harmful gases. If you have a newly renovated house, you can choose to cultivate a few pots of purple flowers, which can not only absorb harmful gases such as formaldehyde, but also have good ornamental value.
