Help my night blooming jasmine. leaves r turning yellow.?

i have a beautiful fragrant night blooming jasmine and its now on bloom. it lives in a pot and looked quite happy and healthy. lately it seems like its depressed with yellow leaves that have started from the bottom of the plant and now the leaves around the mid of the plants r turning yellow too. after it turns yellow it falls away. i fertilize it with liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks but still no help. it basically has no leaves around the bottom, right above the soil level. and i donno what i should do? should i crush some calcium tablets that us humans consume? i have no idea. pls help if u know these plants. thank you.

You are overwatering and over fertilising. It may need more sunlight.
Reply:sounds like over fertilizing it,, jasmines do that they will yellow and droop but once watered perk back up a few hrs later i had potted ones in the shade and looked great then put them in the ground in full sun and it takes a little while with care but they should bounce back they are definitly a watched over plant..

  1. I just planted night blooming Jasmine and all the leaves are turning yellow from the bottom up to the middle. If they came from a shade house will they do that if planted in sun? Will it harm the plant if I cut it all the way back?
