Notes on changing pots for the latest flowers

We usually use potted plants to grow flowers at home, which is different from direct open-field cultivation. When the cultivation time is too long, it is easy to have soil hardening and insufficient nutrients. At this time, in order to meet the growth of the plant, we need to change the pot, usually every two years. Changing pots can not only replenish the nutrients in the soil, but also promote the growth of potted plants. Today, the pro-agricultural network will introduce to you the related matters about changing pots.

First, the time to change the basin

Generally speaking, the best time for common flower seedlings to change pots is about 7 days before and after the Spring Equinox, for the south can be carried out before and after the Qingming Festival, for the majority of flower lovers, there is no need to be so harsh, as long as it is warmer in spring. In addition, the basin change should also follow the growth habits of flowers and plants, germination situation to choose the time to change the basin, generally starting to sprout new buds can be carried out to change the pot and turn the soil.

It should be noted that try not to change pots in the peak growing season of flowers and plants, so that it is easy to miss the growing season, resulting in serious consequences, and do not change pots at high temperatures in midsummer to avoid their death. In addition, just bought the flowers that are slowly growing at home, it is also best not to change the pot, because at this time the plant is more fragile, the root system has not yet recovered, changing the pot is easy to cause secondary damage.

Second, the method of changing the basin

1. Insert the pot soil as far as possible along the edge of the pot with a shovel, gently shake the flowerpot and the plant along the pot for a week, separate them from each other, and take out the plant. If the original flowerpot is soft and no longer in use, it can be cut open to avoid root damage as much as possible. When taking out the plant, try to bring more soil to its roots to avoid bare roots. Changing pots with soil is much more likely to survive than bare roots.

two。 Prune the roots of the flowers to remove the rotten and old roots and avoid competing for nutrients with the new roots. At the same time, the plants are also pruned as necessary, such as diseased and withered branches, weak branches and leaves, etc. If the flowers are too weak, they can be pruned to a large extent to promote the germination of new robust branches.

3. Then the pruned plant can be planted in a new basin, added with new soil, and fixed. Of course, it is better to use rooting powder when it is newly planted, which can promote the germination of new roots. The choice of flowerpots and the deployment of new soil will be explained in subsequent articles.

4. Stop the water about three days before changing the basin, do not water, the soil in the basin is too moist to change the basin. After changing the basin, you need to immediately water, pay attention to maintain smooth ventilation, in order to adapt to the new environment.

Matters needing attention after changing the basin

It is best to change the basin in an environment of about 20 degrees to ensure that the flowers can recover smoothly. After changing the basin, the flowers should be fully watered, and then placed in a place with suitable temperature and good ventilation. If the weather is high, rainy and cold, the newly changed flowers and plants must be moved indoors for maintenance.

Flowers after changing pots are usually damaged and weak, and their ability to absorb nutrients is not high. it is best not to apply fertilizer or prune within two weeks after changing pots, so that the new leaves of flowers can grow freely. and then let the roots of flowers have more power.

The above is the introduction of the methods and matters needing attention of changing pots brought by the pro-agricultural network. Changing pots for flowers is also a very critical step in the process of flower planting. Flower friends should not ignore the existence of this step in the process of conservation. Pro-agricultural network also prepared for everyone a variety of flower planting skills, like friends can go to further understand yo!
