Yellow jasmine

[Bussy Inspector]

Someone pls help me this is doing my head in. I’ve had this yellow jasmine quest for Markus for AGES, haven’t had a single issue with any other quest, but this one is just sitting there while I complete other ones constantly. I have 10 yellow jasmine plants, they get sun, I water and fertilise them, and I’ve gotten about 3 flower cuttings in a week of game time. What am I missing ??

it needs a trellis. I was struggling with it too and finally checked the book.

mine have trellis but are also taking crazy long time to grow no other plant is taking that the same time to grow

The flower on them is temperamental what I kept doing was if the leaves and stem were there I would cut them back to nothing and let them grow again, I planted about 5 of them so you would at least have 1 or 2 flower.

I have had to replant them to get them to flower again. It's frustrating.

Cut them all the way back to the ground. I had this quest for ages and finally got annoyed. Rather like with my real garden, they suddenly performed. But you need to cut all the greenery away every time and fertilize them.

My jasmine flowers didn't want to grow back properly either.
I cut off the flowers and dug up the plants in the evening and replanted them. In the end, I was able to harvest more than waiting for ages to see whether another flower would grow again.

I was wondering if they grow faster in autumn and winter (since the book says that) and it is only growing slow because it is not it's blooming season? But then why would we get the quest in spring?
My solution for now is trimming the ends often, it seems to help, but it is still very slow.

Climbing plants, are a bit of a bane, but here's a few tips.

1) Get a trellis because that's what they require, a good tall one is the best.
2) Plant the climbing plant as close to the trellis as you can.
3) This might not do anything but I think there is some collision coding to the plants so plant just two to a trellis at most and make sure you give them plenty of side instead of planting them close together like you would do for stemmed or bush flowers.
4) Trim them every day to encourage growth, which will result in more flowers eventually. If it's not growing the way you want, just cut it down completely if you have to.
5) Use growth fertiliser every day, and that stuff works fairly quickly so take advantage of it and trim your jasmine first thing in the morning and by the evening it should have grown again for some trimming and hopefully some flowers.

I do find personally of all the climbing plants the jasmine is the most difficult and I'm not sure why.

Also as a random thought, and it might not do anything, but the metal gazebo which by design has four trellis' on each wall might work better. Or at least I find my ivy seems to really like that one. I don't know if that's because it's a narrower trellis which forces the plant to grow closer together and upwards, since it can't spread out as much once it latches onto a trellis.

Yeah this is doing my head in. I tried following everyone's advice here about a trellis and the gazebo and it's still not giving me flowers. It's summer now though so I don't know if that's it. I just want to get to the point where I can fix the bridge so I have more space to layout the garden.

Have you tried trimming it if it looks like it won't grow anymore? That is what I do. And always have fertilizer on them. At all times. It is slow, but at least it works faster than just waiting.

Also I would recommend unlocking not the bridge but the removal of the ruble (I think it's called) because if you look, you will see the other side of the bridge is very tiny and the tree is blocking the sunlight almost all the time. I instead made a bit more money and unlocked the other side of the place with the greenhouse.

I think its buggy, while I have the quest, Jasmin dont grow. Must replace it every day. After the Quest is finished, it will grow, on the same place they stand, every day.

Is it by any chance autumn in your game now? Or still summer?
