Jasmine, with its fresh fragrance and elegant posture, is loved by many. Hydroponic cultivation of jasmine not only saves space but also makes the growth process of jasmine more intuitive. Let's learn together the method of hydroponic jasmine rooting to easily grow beautiful jasmine flowers.
Select healthy jasmine seedlingsBefore hydroponic cultivation, first select healthy jasmine seedlings. Healthy jasmine seedlings should have green leaves, be free from diseases and pests, and have intact roots. When selecting, observe whether the roots of the jasmine seedlings are developed, as well-developed roots make it easier for the seedlings to root in water.
Prepare hydroponic containers and toolsHydroponic cultivation of jasmine requires a transparent hydroponic container to observe the growth of jasmine, as well as some tools such as scissors, disinfectant, and rooting powder. The container can be a glass bottle, plastic bottle, or ceramic bottle, as long as it is transparent and has a hole at the bottom.
Wash jasmine seedlingsBefore placing the jasmine seedlings in water, wash the roots and leaves of the seedlings clean. You can rinse them with clean water to remove soil and impurities. After washing, soak the roots of the jasmine seedlings in disinfectant to prevent the occurrence of diseases and pests.
Trim jasmine seedlingsTrim the roots of the jasmine seedlings into a neat shape, removing the rotting and weak parts. The length of the trimmed roots should be about 3-5 centimeters to promote the growth of new roots.
Soak in rooting powderSoak the trimmed jasmine seedlings in a rooting powder solution for 15-20 minutes. Rooting powder can promote root growth and improve the survival rate of the seedlings.
Place in waterPlace the soaked jasmine seedlings into the prepared hydroponic container, making sure the roots are evenly distributed in the water. The water level should not be too high, just enough to cover the roots.
Maintain water qualityHydroponic cultivation of jasmine requires regular water changes to maintain clean water quality. Generally, change the water once a week. If the water becomes turbid, change it earlier. When changing the water, rinse the roots with clean water to remove impurities.
Lighting and temperatureJasmine prefers a sunny environment but avoids direct sunlight. Place hydroponic jasmine in a place with plenty of scattered light, ensuring 4-6 hours of sunlight exposure per day. As for temperature, jasmine thrives at temperatures between 15-25°C, and it is important to keep the plant warm during winter.
FertilizeHydroponic jasmine requires an appropriate amount of nutrients during growth. You can add a small amount of hydroponic fertilizer to the water. Generally, apply fertilizer once a week, taking care not to let the fertilizer come into direct contact with the roots.
The method of hydroponic jasmine rooting is not complicated. By mastering the above steps, you can easily grow beautiful jasmine flowers. I hope this article can help you and wish you a pleasant flower cultivation experience!
