Jasmine has a long history of cultivation in our country and is a favorite of literary and artistic circles. It is loved by people for its refreshing fragrance and beautiful flowers. Next, I will introduce the cultivation method of old jasmine plant.
1. Prepare Potting Soil
Firstly, choose a pot of appropriate size for the old jasmine plant, generally a clay pot with good drainage and breathability; the choice of soil is very important, and it is necessary to choose soil that is loose, fertile, and has good drainage and breathability. You can mix decayed leaf soil, peat soil, sandy loam soil, and fine sand in certain proportions manually. Keep the soil moist when planting.
2. Select Roots
You can dig the roots manually or purchase a suitable, strong old plant directly, then retain about 500 grams of soil attached to the roots, trim the branches to leave about 5 centimeters, and soak the prepared roots in a solution for disinfection before planting. After preparation, trim the weak, sick roots, making sure the wounds are as smooth as possible. This can reduce the evaporation of water from the roots and increase the survival rate.
3. Cultivation
The main steps of cultivation include filling soil and watering. When filling soil, be sure to hold the old plant with your hand while filling in the cultivation soil, cover the roots completely with soil, and make sure not to pack it too tightly, as this may affect the root respiration of the old plant. After filling the soil, water immediately, making sure to water thoroughly, then place it in a shady place, away from sunlight, until the plant grows new leaves.
4. Precautions
When the soil gradually becomes compacted, it is time to loosen the soil for the plant. In summer, you can apply organic fertilizer and phosphorus-potassium fertilizer, about once a month; since jasmine likes acidic conditions, you can apply aspirin to lower the pH of the soil.
