🌿 Plant Care Tips

Sunlight:

Though it tolerates partial shade, full sun encourages maximum blooming.

Soil:

Well-draining, loamy or sandy soil with good organic matter.

Watering:

Keep the soil moist but not soggy. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.

Container:

Use a 12-inch pot or grow bag to cultivate Arabian Jasmine. Ensure the container has proper drainage holes to prevent waterlogging and promote healthy root development. 

Pruning:

Trim after flowering to encourage new growth and more blooms. Remove dead or weak branches regularly.

Temperature:

Arabian Jasmine thrives in temperatures between 20°C to 35°C. It is sensitive to cold and should be protected from frost.

Pests & Diseases:

Monitor for pests like aphids, spider mites, and whiteflies. Treat infestations with neem oil or Beauveria Bassiana. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal issues such as leaf blight and rust. 

Fertilising:

During the growing season (spring through summer), feed Arabian Jasmine every 4-6 weeks with organic fertilisers like vermicompost or fish amino acid to enhance soil health and stimulate early growth. Reduce fertilisation in fall and winter to prevent overfeeding. Avoid direct contact between fertiliser and foliage to prevent burns.

⚠️ Common Issues and Remedies

Dropping Buds

Maintain a stable temperature. Avoid moving the plant too frequently. Water consistently but avoid excess moisture

Fungal Diseases

Water at the base, avoiding wetting the leaves. Ensure proper spacing between plants for airflow. Apply a fungicide or use a baking soda solution for mildew.

Poor Blooming

Provide at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Avoid excessive nitrogen-based fertilisers. Prune lightly after flowering to promote new blooms.
