☞☞Grow the Windmill Jasmine well and let it bloom abundantly. The secret to long-lasting blooming is Understand its growth habits and implement its needs in a timely manner!
So, what are the environmental requirements of Windmill Jasmine during its growth and flowering period?
"Soil"
Windmill jasmine likes weakly acidic fertile and breathable nutrient soil, so during planting, especially in potted plants, requires that the soil can not only maintain the soil pH value as weakly acidic for a long time, between 5.5 and 6.5. .
At the same time, the soil also needs to contain at least 10% organic matter, which can continuously and stably provide various trace elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and calcium for the growing jasmine!
recommends adding 30% to 40% humus to the garden soil or vegetable garden soil when arranging your own soil!
"Lighting"
Windmill Jasmine likes soft and long-term lighting. The factor that can directly affect the light intensity is the natural ambient temperature.
Generally, when the natural environment is lower than 30℃, full-day sunshine can greatly promote the blooming of windmill jasmine and the long-lasting flowers!
Therefore, if you want windmill jasmine to bloom longer, usually the best way to cultivate it is to plant it in a pot. When
is a potted plant, it can change the light intensity of its environment by moving it back and forth, so that it can always receive sufficient and appropriate light intensity, bloom more, and grow vigorously!
"Moisture"
A warm and humid environment allows the windmill jasmine to bloom all year round, one crop after another!
When replenishing water for windmill jasmine on a daily basis, we need to decide the amount of watering based on changes in the soil.
Generally, for potted plants, the soil needs to be watered thoroughly every time, but you must wait until the surface of the soil is dry and there is little water deep in the soil before watering.
The usual criterion for judging is that the value of the dry humidity detector drops below 30%, or when tools such as bamboo sticks or chopsticks are inserted into the soil, and there is no trace of water when pulled out after staying for 5 to 10 minutes!
"Nutrient"
Windmill jasmine in different states has different needs for trace elements. In the stage when it is not blooming, it is usually necessary to supplement nitrogen elements to promote the development of rhizomes and leaves, because only when the rhizomes and leaves are developed can it A lot of nutrients are stored for flowering, laying a solid foundation.
Once the environmental conditions reach the state where the windmill jasmine can bloom, we will use less compound fertilizers and organic fertilizers containing a large amount of nitrogen, and instead add more phosphorus and potassium elements to promote the differentiation and development of flower buds and further stimulate the windmill jasmine. , let the plants bloom more, and each of the flower buds produced can successfully complete the transformation and bloom into beautiful flowers.
It is recommended that friends who use compound fertilizers always keep urea and potassium dihydrogen phosphate at home all year round, and use Windmill Jasmine whenever you need it!
"Pruning"
Don't think that pruning the branches and leaves of plants is to create a better shape?
Anyone who is knowledgeable knows that proper pruning is beneficial to the growth, development and condition of plants!
When cultivating windmill jasmine, especially in pots, not only do branches need to be pruned if they grow too vigorously, so as to prevent the branches and leaves from being unable to stretch out and allow light and ventilation;
at the same time, diseased branches and aging branches should also be discovered in time. Prune it off to avoid the spread of pathogens, reduce unnecessary metabolic consumption, and stimulate the plant!
In addition, not all branches can successfully nurture flower buds and bloom beautiful flowers. Generally, side branches growing at the same time will compete with each other for nutrients, resulting in the growth of flower buds. Flower buds do not fall off normally due to malnutrition, so we found that cutting them off early is more beneficial to the plant's flowering!
