How to propagate garden jasmine in spring and summer

The garden jasmine flower has another name - chubushnik. The plant belongs to evergreen, climbing species. The homeland of growth is the subtropics. The terry jasmine bush belongs to the Hortensia family and has a strong and very refined aroma. Chubushnik is easy to grow and care for.

How to propagate garden jasmine

When breeding jasmine, it is important not to damage the parent flower. A positive result directly depends on the choice of the method and the time of reproduction.

Dates when it can be done

For each type of reproduction, there are generally accepted terms. Reproduction by cuttings is carried out in the summer. Sometimes gardeners harvest cuttings in early fall and store them in a cold room until spring. Planting of autumn material on the site is carried out at the end of March. Sowing seeds in open ground can be carried out in autumn, winter or spring.

Features of the reproduction of garden jasmine in spring, summer and autumn

Young shoots take root better in summer. The root system of the cuttings develops quickly, and is fully formed by the onset of cold weather.

How to properly propagate jasmine seeds in winter:

• The air temperature should not drop below -10 degrees.
• Sowing is carried out directly into the snow, to a depth of 25-30 cm.
• The landing site is covered with any plant material and pressed down with heavy branches.
• In the spring, the self-made structure is neatly removed and the young shoots are shaded from dangerous sunlight.
• After that, you can plant the jasmine in a previously prepared place.

For spring planting, it is advisable to plant seeds in a greenhouse or greenhouse. Before that, they should be treated with a light manganese solution. The seed is mixed with dry sand and sown on top of the nutrient soil. To protect against freezing, the plantings are covered with peat, garden moss and sprinkled with rotted manure.

Reproduction by layering is carried out in late April, early May. This time is ideal for the full development of jasmine before the onset of cold weather.

Methods for breeding chubushnik with a description

To choose a specific method, it is important to understand how jasmine multiplies at home. The following options for breeding jasmine are common:

• lateral shoots - layering;
• apical cuttings;
• dividing the root;
• seeds.

Breeding rules by cuttings

Plant breeding in this way is carried out in spring or summer.

Jasmine propagation by cuttings in the summer is carried out carefully so as not to damage the mother plant. Important conditions:

• only green shoots are used;
• the length of the handle must be more than 6 cm;
• shoots older than one year take root worse;
• the presence of long internodes will not allow a strong plant to grow.

Breeding jasmine cuttings in summer

When grafting, the twig is lowered into the water or immediately planted in the ground.

Cutting jasmine into the water in summer is best done with heel twigs. To do this, the stalk is cut off near the base and the lower leaves are cut off.It is better to breed a shrub in water at room temperature. For disinfection, an activated carbon tablet is added.

Having figured out how to propagate jasmine by cuttings in the summer, it is not difficult to get a strong and healthy plant. You can plant the prepared twigs in a pot with nutritious soil. A light substrate consisting of a mixture of sand and peat is suitable.

Procedure:

1. A thick layer of expanded clay must be laid at the bottom of the pot, which will serve as natural drainage.
2. A cutting is carefully planted in the pre-moistened ground.
3. The container with the planting is covered with a glass vessel to create greenhouse conditions. The rooting process takes place at a temperature of + 22-24 degrees.

The jasmine cuttings procedure can take 10 to 14 days. The appearance of new leaves and shoots is a sign of correct rooting of the seedling.

How to cut jasmine in spring? It is better to reproduce with lignified branches.

In the fall, after the foliage has completely fallen off, it is necessary to cut off the adult shoots. The branches are cut into cuttings 10-12 cm in size each. In winter, planting material is stored at temperatures from 0 to -3 degrees. Any boxes filled with moistened sand are perfect for these purposes.

In the spring, cuttings are treated with a biostimulant and planted in fertile soil, which consists of turf, sand, light substrate. After a month, roots form on the cuttings. In summer, young plants are regularly watered.

To form and stimulate new shoots in the spring of the next season, you need to cut the shoot. The height of the hemp cannot be more than 15 cm.

Seed planting rules

Seed propagation is only suitable for natural jasmine species. Hybrid varieties are not bred like this. Before sowing seeds in open ground, pre-sowing treatment is carried out. The seeds are soaked in warm water for several hours. After swelling, they are sown in a light moist soil and covered with any transparent material. Planting of seed is possible twice a year.

Jasmine seeds

Before the autumn sowing, the seeds are stratified - the freezing period can last 1-2 months. For convenience, the seed is mixed with sand and sown superficially around October - November. From above, the soil is covered with organic fertilizer.

Before spring sowing, the seeds are soaked for 3 hours. Disembarkation in pre-prepared containers is carried out in mid-March. The substrate should be as light and nutritious as possible. After planting, the container is covered with any transparent material. After about 10 days, the first shoots will appear. Their picking is carried out when the first 4 true leaves appear.

In open ground, healthy seedlings can be transplanted in May or June. The landing site should be sunny and protected from wind loads. By the fall, the seedlings will noticeably grow up and they will need to be covered with mulch before the cold weather. In the spring of next year, all shoots must be cut off from young bushes. This procedure is carried out to form a beautiful bush.

How to propagate by layering

To understand how to dilute jasmine with layering, you need to familiarize yourself with the process technology:

• The most developed shoot bends down and fits into a special depression, which is then covered with nutritious soil.
• To speed up the rooting process, constant moistening of the soil and hilling of the bush are required.
• In winter, it is recommended to cover the shoot with any organic matter.It can be compost or humus.
• The next year, the layers can be separated and transplanted to the prepared place.

Two options for propagation by layering

Having studied the different options, you can decide how to grow jasmine from a branch: cuttings or layering.

How to propagate by dividing a bush

You can root jasmine by dividing the bush. To do this, a day before digging up the plant, the soil is watered abundantly. The root system should be divided into several parts, the resulting delenki should be planted in shallow pits. Abundant watering is required.

Having understood how the jasmine shrub reproduces, you can decorate the entire area with these fragrant plants without much difficulty.

Seedling care

The plant loves the most moist soil and does not tolerate an arid climate. At elevated temperatures, jasmine should be watered regularly. After each watering, the soil under the bush must be loosened.

Top dressing is recommended to be done at least 3 times a year:

• In the spring, the soil is fertilized with organic fertilizers (slurry diluted with water in a ratio of 1:10 has proven itself well).
• In the summer, nitrogen preparations should be added to the soil. A mixture of urea (15 grams), Superphosphate (30 grams), potassium sulfate (15 grams), diluted in 10 liters of water is suitable.
• After flowering, a mixture of Superphosphate (15 grams) and potassium sulfate (15 grams) will help restore the soil. Solids dissolve in a bucket of warm water. Watering is done directly under the bush.

Healthy flowering plant

Transplant rules

The most lucid and sunny place is suitable for transplanting jasmine. The plant responds positively to bright light. With a lack of sunlight, the shoots stretch out, the flowers become smaller or completely fall off.

Planting substrate should consist of:

• humus - 1 part;
• river sand - 2 parts;
• leafy land - 3 parts.

The pit should be 60 * 60 * 60 cm in size. The bottom layer is drainage. You can use gravel or expanded clay, the minimum thickness is 15 cm. On top of the drainage, the depression is filled with a prepared substrate.

After planting, the plant must be watered abundantly. Stagnant water can lead to the death of shrubs.

Ornamental jasmine bush

Jasmine is a plant that does not require special care and is unassuming to the place of growth. The main thing is to comply with all the rules of growing, watering and feeding. As a result, the snow-white shrub will ennoble the owner, turning the most ordinary landscape into an exquisite one.
