Why the mock-orange does not bloom. Poor plant growth

Garden jasmine, or chubushnik, was brought to the territory of Russia from the warm countries of the East. The bush is very popular due to its beautiful, abundant flowering and rich aroma. The plant does not require special care, but if you start it, it will cease to delight with magnificent flowers. There are many reasons why indoor mock-orange does not bloom.

Incorrect landing or transplant

First of all, in order to figure out why the chubushnik grows poorly, you need to check whether the rules and conditions of planting are observed. Jasmine does not like shade, if it is planted in a shaded place, it needs to be transplanted closer to sunlight. But at the same time it is important that the rays are not straight, scalding. If the shrub does not have enough light, the shoots begin to stretch out, and the bud does not form.

Chubushnik or jasmine is one of the main decorations of any garden

The problem why the mock-orange blooms poorly arises when the plant is planted very deeply. Because of this, the development process is disrupted. In addition, the quality of the soil plays an important role. Before planting a plant, you need to fertilize the soil well.

Watering errors

Jasmine does not like very moist soil. If water accumulates in the place where the shrub is planned to be planted, you must first prepare the drainage. To do it you will need:

• crushed stone;
• pebbles;
• gravel.

All components must be laid out on the bottom of the pit, then covered with earth on top.

The reason why the chubushnik does not grow may be a lack of moisture. A plant that does not have enough water begins to wither, then gradually dies.

Lack of light

Chubushnik will not bloom if it lacks light. If the plant is planted in the shade, to correct the situation, it must be transplanted to the sunny side. But it is important that the light is diffused. Direct sunlight is dangerous for shrubs.

Improper feeding

If a flower lacks nutrients, it will not bud. Regular pruning, as well as the rapid growth of the shrub, leads to the fact that the plant requires a lot of minerals and vitamins. It is recommended to feed the plant three times a day:

• with the onset of spring;
• before flowering;
• as soon as the plant has bloomed.

Superphosphates, wood ash and potash fertilizers are very useful for the plant. Thanks to them, the bush has abundant flowering. Carefully use nitrogen fertilizers. They provoke strong growth of greenery, but the number of inflorescences is reduced.

The folk method helps well. To feed the plant, you can prepare an infusion of nettle. The grass is poured with water and left in a dark place for 10 days. After the infusion is ready. it is diluted with water and watered with bushes. First, superphosphate must be added to them.

Diseases

Jasmine will not bloom if it is infected with any disease or attacked by a pest. It is easy to detect the disease on your own if you carefully examine the bush. The first symptoms are visible immediately on foliage and shoots.In an infected shrub, yellow spots appear on the leaves, they gradually curl and dry out.

In mid-July, light brown spots with a white border may form on the leaves of the plant. This sign indicates a plant infection with brown spot. Damaged leaves must be collected and destroyed. And the plant itself can be treated with Bordeaux mixture.

Pests

If the plant does not budding, this indicates an attack by harmful insects such as aphids, spider mites, and weevils. You can get rid of them by treating jasmine in spring and autumn with insecticides. The most commonly used "karbofos". The remedy does not affect the health of jasmine, but it copes well with parasites. In the initial stages of infection, insects can be eliminated using folk remedies.

When attacked by thrips, small dots appear on the leaves, which gradually form large spots. If parasites are found, the plant must be rinsed well under the shower, then sprayed not only the bush, but also the soil itself. To fix the result, spraying must be carried out several times.
