When should I change the soil for orchids?

1. Soil replacement time

You cannot change the soil for orchids when the weather is hot or cold. The best time is spring and autumn, as changing the soil during this period will not cause harm to the plants. If the plant's roots are accidentally damaged during soil changes, changing the soil in spring and autumn will allow the roots to recover and heal quickly, and will not have too much impact on its growth. Moreover, there will be relatively fewer bacteria in the soil in spring, and changing the soil will reduce the chance of the plant being infected by bacteria.

2. Soil requirements

When changing the soil for orchids, you should replace it with soil that has good air permeability and is rich in humus. Such soil will be more conducive to the recovery of the plant. The most important point is to disinfect the soil. If you use newly purchased soil, you can use it with confidence. If other plants have been planted before, they must be disinfected.

3. Notes

Be careful when changing the soil and try to avoid damaging the plant's roots. If the roots are damaged, it will be difficult to recover after potting. Therefore, if the roots are damaged, reasonable remedial measures must be taken.
