1. When to transplant jasmine, generally, both spring and autumn are suitable seasons for transplanting.
2. Key points for transplanting jasmine:
If transplanting in spring, you can add base fertilizer. At other times, do not add base fertilizer. Remove the surviving cuttings or plants from the cup (pot), retain the root sand ball as much as possible, gently place them in the prepared potting soil, do not shake, and add potting soil at the same time. Press down the added potting soil with your hand, then water thoroughly, and place it in a place where it is exposed to daylight but not direct sunlight. After a week of care, it can be maintained as usual. When watering, make sure the soil is dry before watering and not constantly watered, so that the fibrous roots have no opportunity to breathe and extend.
It is quite crucial to pot jasmine seedlings. Special attention should be paid to the jasmine roots when potting newly planted ones.
1) Do not damage the roots too much and try to retain the fibrous roots.
2) When potting, use plain soil without fertilizer, as it can easily cause root rot and difficulty in survival.
3) Do not fertilize during the slow seedling period.
The newly potted jasmine should be placed in a ventilated area with exposure to light but not direct sunlight for three to five days, then moved to a place with sunlight for maintenance and management. Always observe its growth condition, water thoroughly at one time, and do not let the potting soil stay moist constantly, as this will cause the roots of jasmine to suffocate and rot.
Jasmine Soil and Pot Selection
The quality of the soil used for jasmine is very important. It must be: not white when dry, and not muddy when wet. Also, the selection of the pot is essential; it must have good breathability to benefit the growth of jasmine. If the potting soil becomes compacted, it should be loosened, but there is a secret unknown to many: after loosening the soil, you must use your hand or a tool like a spade to gently press the loosened potting soil to ensure that the loosened fibrous roots and epidermal roots are closely attached to the potting soil, to prevent damage to the roots during watering or fertilizing, which can affect the normal growth of the plant. When jasmine is recovering its roots, the upper part of the plant will stop growing. Many people's jasmine does not grow strong because they do not understand the importance of this step.
