Last Updated: 2024/11/21, The turning of bonsai trees can be determined according to the following aspects: (1) in general, small bonsai is turned once every 1-2 years, medium bonsai every 2-3 years, and large bonsai every 5 years. If it is an old tree pile scene, you can turn the basin every few years. (2) the tree species with exuberant growth and like fertilizer have more times of turning pots and shorter interval years, while those species with slow growth and less fertilizer need less pots turning times and longer interval years. The old pile scene of pine and cypress should not be turned over more. (3) the tree species with luxuriant branches and leaves and well-developed roots should turn the pot frequently.

The turning of potted trees can be decided according to the following aspects:

(1) Generally, small bonsai shall be turned over once every 1~2 years, medium bonsai shall be turned over once every 2~3 years, and large bonsai shall be turned over once every 3~5 years. If it is an old tree stump, it can be turned over once every few years.

(2) For tree species that grow vigorously and like fertilizer, the number of pot turning times should be more and the interval period should be shorter; for tree species that grow slowly and need less fertilizer, the number of pot turning times can be less and the interval period can be longer. Old pine and cypress piles should not be turned over more pots.

(3) The tree species with luxuriant branches and leaves and developed roots should be turned over frequently. Turning pots can be determined by the growth of roots. When the pot soil is not dry or wet, turn the pots upside down and pat the bottom of the pots with your hands to pour out all the trees with soil and roots. Check the hardening of soil blocks and the distribution of root systems. If the soil blocks are hardened and the root systems are densely distributed on the bottom of soil blocks, it means that the pots must be turned over.

The time of pot turning is better to choose the dormancy period of forest, mostly in early spring or late autumn. If more original soil is retained, it can be turned over at any time, regardless of seasonal restrictions. If most or all of the old soil needs to be replaced, the appropriate time for turning the pot should be strictly selected.
