It's repotting season, and your plants need to be repotted

"As potted flowers grow and develop continuously, the plants become robust and tall, and the root system keeps growing toward the pot walls, making the original pot seem smaller and smaller. After one to two years, the nutrients in the pot are almost depleted, and the plant's root system shows signs of aging. The leaves also gradually turn yellow and thin due to insufficient nutrient supply. At this point, you should consider repotting and changing the soil.

Repotting and changing the soil can generally be done in spring or autumn. Do not water for a few days before repotting; wait until the potting soil is half-dry before proceeding. If the potting soil is too wet, the stickiness between the pot wall and the soil is too great, which is not conducive to removing the root ball. If it is too dry, the plant lacks water and its growth is affected.

These plants definitely need repotting:

1

Asparagus fern

After a summer of frequent watering, or with a top-dressing of decorative stones on the soil surface, you won't notice anything. But set those aside, and once the soil dries out slightly, you'll find it has cracked open. This shows that the nutrients have basically been used up! What are you waiting for? Repot it!

2

Clivia

The root system of Clivia is intricate and complex. To meet its growth needs, it generally needs repotting every autumn. This is especially true for large plants, otherwise the phenomenon of clamped arrows easily occurs.

03

Succulents

They are already just a tiny plant with little soil. With long-term watering, the nutrients in the soil quickly run out. Repotting in time is more beneficial to the growth of succulents. Besides, a small pot doesn't take much time.

4

Spider plant

The root system of spider plants grows very quickly, so change the soil and move them to a larger pot in time every year to give spider plants enough growing space.

Repotting precautions:

1. When repotting, keep as much soil around the plant roots as possible, and try to avoid bare roots; this is because transplanting with soil is easier to survive than transplanting with bare roots.

2. When repotting, if the original flower pot is a soft plastic pot (or paper cup), it is recommended to cut it open, as this will not damage the plant roots.

3. Do not repot continuously within a short period. For ordinary plants, there should be an interval of at least half a year or even longer between two repottings; however, for plants in the seedling stage, there are special circumstances. Depending on the seedling's growth, once the seedling has grown a size larger, you can repot it. This can be done frequently.
