Last Updated: 2024/11/24, To change pots for desert roses, it is best to choose a clay basin with good water permeability and good drainage capacity. The size of the basin should be twice the root volume of the plant. The time to change the basin should be in the spring, first remove the plant from the pot, transplant the old soil into a new basin containing part of the new soil, and then fill it with the remaining soil.

First, select the basin.

Desert rose is a drought-tolerant plant, and its pots must be well drained and breathable in order to avoid excessive watering and rotting roots. The size of the basin should be twice the size of the desert rose root system, so that its roots have room to grow in the coming year and will not be affected by overcrowding.

Second, the time to change the basin

The time to change the pot should be in spring, because the climate in spring is stable, and the desert rose has just begun to grow, and the adaptability to the new environment is relatively strong. If the pot is changed too early, the plant has not yet begun to grow, and it is easy to have rotten roots. If it is too late, the plant will grow vigorously and suddenly change the basin. The survival rate is not high. Change the basin time to avoid in the summer, the summer temperature is high, change the pot root is easy to rot, affect survival.

Third, the method of changing the basin

When changing the basin for the plant, it is necessary to prepare the new basin soil in advance. The soil is acidic sand with good air permeability and good drainage performance. When changing the pot, you should first remove the plant from the pot. At this time, try to bring more old soil on the root system, and you must not have bare roots. Bare roots are not easy to survive, and the survival rate of transplanting with soil is higher. Then put it in a new basin containing part of the new soil, and then fill it with the remaining soil and compact it. After changing the basin, do not water the plant first, put it in a cool place, wait for it to adapt to the new environment, and then slowly water, move to a place with light, and gradually restore the light.

IV. matters needing attention

Be careful when changing pots, don't hurt the root system and prevent infection. If injured, the wound should be smeared with carbendazim in time, disinfection and sterilization. The interval of changing the basin can not be less than half a year, it is best to change the basin once a year or so. Stop watering the basin soil before changing the basin and wait until the basin soil is completely dry before changing the basin.
