Brown flowers and bud on indoor Jasmine
« on: March 31, 2015, 18:50 »
Hello readers,
I know this is not a veg or fruit question but I thought I'd try for an answer.
I have a Jasmine indoors with lovely with flowers and a beautiful scent.
Unfortunately the flowers and some of the new buds are begging to turn brown and fall off.
I believe it may be too cold at night or in/near a draught.
Any ideas?

Could be that - how much are you watering them?  It could be a sign of overwatering too?
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

Hello Yorkie,
No, it's not over watering as the soil is slightly moist to dry.
It's a shame because the plant looked lovely.

I've just had a look in my books and, apart from grey mould and a virus (both of which you would probably notice on the plant), I can't find anything so think it is stress-related, so maybe a little dilute feed might help.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

Hello Goosegirl,
Thank you for the info.
I'll give a try and see what happens or not.
Like you I couldn't find anything in my books yet, I'm sure I've read somewhere the same/similar problem.

So have I but can't remember where and what it related to, so I Giggled it and it couold be due to over- or under-watering or a fluctuation in temperature.
