When we are raising plants, we feel a special sense of achievement when we see our beloved plants grow up day by day. But when the plants grow up, a worry comes along, that is, when the plants grow up, the flowerpots can no longer hold them. Large or small flowerpots will affect the growth of plants. The same is true of cultivated orchids. It takes about four years for them to grow from seedling to adult and from one leaf to twenty leaves. In this process, according to the growth trend, pots are changed every six months to a year, so many flower lovers do not know how big a flowerpot to choose. Here are the specific criteria for mastery:

The number of leaves of Cymbidium corresponds to the size of the basin.

Every ten seedlings with one leaf can be planted in a four-inch pot.

Seedlings with two or three leaves can use a four-inch pot thirteen centimeters high.

A five-inch basin with four or five leaves that is fifteen centimeters high.

Six or seven leaves are available in six-inch pots with a height of eighteen centimeters.

A seven-inch basin with eight to ten leaves with a height of 24 centimeters.

An eight-inch basin with eleven to fifteen leaves with a height of 26 centimeters.

Orchids with 16 to 25 leaves can use pots ranging from one foot to one foot two with a height of 33 centimeters.

Changing the basin in time is an important condition to ensure the exuberant growth of Magnolia, because the large and small flower pots are not only easy to hurt the roots, but also affect the absorption of nutrients because the fleshy roots are concentrated on the bottom of the basin or curled around the basin. The small pot of face flowers not only affects the air permeability, but also affects the temperature of the basin soil, especially in winter, the growth of the orchid will be inhibited if the soil temperature is too low. Therefore, to raise magnolia, you must change the basin at the right time.
