During the growing season jasmine needs a lot of moisture. Pour the plant in a pot or bucket regularly. If the jasmine is directly in the sun, you need to water more often. When caring in the flower window you provide by spraying for high humidity.

Use the softest possible rainwater to spray jasmine. If necessary, also stale tap water.
How much fertilizer does the plant need?
Freshly transplanted plants in spring need no fertilizer. They are fertilized for the first time only after a few weeks.
All other Jasmine should be fertilized with a liquid flower fertilizer at least every two weeks.

When and how is jasmine cut?
Jasmine only blooms on young shoots. Cut the plant best in February or March. Remove older shoots. At the interfaces, the jasmine branches and becomes bushy overall.
At least every three to four years you should rejuvenate the jasmine by cutting it back to one third. The plant then expires one to two years with the flower.
Which diseases occur?
Diseases only occur if the jasmine is too moist or too dry. Provide good ventilation to prevent mold and fungal attack.

Especially in winter quarters are more common aphids, mealybugs and spider mites to the problem. Heavy infestation indicates that the plant is too warm or not well ventilated.
Even in the flower window pests occasionally occur. You prevent it if you ventilate the site regularly.
