Jade tree repotting method and steps

1. Depotting : It is recommended to cut off water three days before depotting. When depotting, first use a small shovel to draw a circle along the inner wall of the pot, or tap the outer wall of the pot, which can make the potting soil easier to separate. Then turn the pot upside down, hold the rhizome, and take it out carefully.

2. Prune the roots : first dig out the camellia, shake off some of the soil around the roots to expose most of the plant's roots, and then cut off the dead and rotten roots.

3. Prepare the potting soil : Prepare a larger flowerpot with good air permeability. Choose new soil that is soft, fertile and well-drained, and then mix the new soil and old soil thoroughly.

4. Plant in a pot : Place the jade plant in the middle of the prepared soil, fill it with soil after the roots are expanded, compact the soil lightly, water the soil to help it take root, and finally place it in a cool place.
