The main contents of turning the basin are to enlarge the basin diameter, remove the old soil, replace the new culture soil, add base fertilizer, arrange the root nest, remove the material root, cut off the overlong root beard, promote the new root, and give the potted flower a new environment. Fleshy root flowers such as peony, gentleman orchid, orchid, etc., when turning the basin, the fleshy root should be washed, dried, and then put on the basin.

The time to turn the basin is usually in March and April. Correctly speaking, when the bud begins to expand and the new bud has not yet developed, it is the best time to change the basin. When turning the basin, first use small pieces of bamboo to loosen the soil around the basin wall and push the plants out of the old basin. After the soil mass is removed, about half of the old soil should be shaken off and the dry, rotten and overgrown roots should be cut off at the same time.

The outlet holes of the new basin bottom must overlap and cover more than 3 pieces of broken basin pieces, so that they can drain smoothly without losing soil. According to the size of the new basin, first add an appropriate amount of culture soil to the bottom, then put the plant into and add the new soil, and at the same time poke the soil with small sticks and other things, so that the new soil is closely combined with the plant mud mass. The basin soil should not be too full, leave the outlet to provide convenience for watering in the future.

After changing the basin, water should be watered immediately and thoroughly at one time until water seeps from the bottom of the basin. At that time, do not apply fertilizer, it is best to wait for the seedlings to send new roots, start to restore growth (usually half a month), and then supplement fertility to make it grow better. After changing the basin, in order to reduce foliar evaporation, put the basin in the shade for several days, then gradually see the light, and then put it in a place with sufficient light after adaptation.
