How to water jasmine flowers correctly
As a famous traditional flower, Jasmine flower is deeply loved by gardening enthusiasts with its elegant fragrance. To cultivate this southern plant that likes dampness and is afraid of waterlogging, it is particularly important to master watering and fertilization skills. This paper will start from the perspective of root maintenance and systematically analyze the key points of water and fertilizer management in different seasons. Jasmine scientific watering system seasonal watering cycle regulates daily morning water replenishment during spring germination period, and cooperates with warm water at 15-20℃ to promote root development. In summer, the "dual-hour watering method" is adopted: pour thoroughly once at 6-7 a.m. and at 18-19 p.m. to avoid the high temperature period at noon. Progressive water control will be implemented for 3-5 days during the autumn transition period. During the winter hibernation period, the principle of dry and thorough irrigation of the basin soil will be adopted, and the air humidity will be maintained at 40%. The three elements of water control follow the principle of "seeing dry, seeing wet", and the amount of watering each time = the volume of the flowerpot ×0.6 coefficient. The dipping basin method is used for testing: Insert the bamboo stick into 2/3 of the basin soil, and pour it thoroughly when it is pulled out and there is no trace of moisture. Special reminder: In the rainy season, tilt the flowerpot at an angle of 15 degrees and use the drainage holes to speed up water drainage. Water quality optimization plan Collecting rainwater is the first choice, and mineral water needs to be left standing for 48 hours to remove chlorine. Adjust the pH value of the basin soil with a 100-fold diluted citric acid solution (pH 5.5 -6.5) every month. The northern region recommends the use of magnetized water treatment devices to decompose water molecules for easier absorption. Jasmine nutrient supply strategy The ratio of base fertilizer and topdressing is used when applying the pot: the bottom layer is spread with 2 cm of decomposed sheep manure, the middle layer is mixed with bone meal and vermiculite (1:3), and the surface layer is covered with plain soil. During the growth period, soybean water (N≥2%) and potassium dihydrogen phosphate (P ˇ O ≥52%) are used alternately every 15 days, and the concentration is controlled at 800-1000 times the solution. Foliar fertilizer efficiency enhancement plan Spray chelated trace element fertilizer every week during the flower bud differentiation period, focusing on supplementing iron and zinc elements. Use an atomizing nozzle to spray evenly 30cm away from the leaf surface to avoid strong noon hours. Special formula: 1:50 dilution of beer and water can enhance the thickness of leaf cuticle.
By establishing a seasonal dynamic water and fertilizer management system, coupled with regular loosening of soil and root inspection, the annual number of jasmine blossoms can be increased to 5-6 times. Remember the twelve-character secret of "nourishing roots in winter, promoting buds in spring, protecting flowers in summer, and storing energy in autumn" to keep your jasmine flowers blooming and fragrant.
