Gardenia repotting timeGardenia needs to be repotted to promote the growth of the root system. Generally speaking, it is suitable to do this in February in spring and October in autumn. These two time points are the early stages of plant growth, and the temperature in these two seasons is suitable. Growth will resume quickly after repotting, and the survival rate is high. How to repot gardenia1. Prune the roots Before repotting the gardenia, you can stop watering it so that it is easier to remove from the pot. Just turn the pot upside down and gently tap the pot, and you can take it out with your hand. After removing from the pot, you need to trim off the rotten or dead roots, apply wood ash to the roots, disinfect them, and place them in a ventilated place to dry before planting. 2. Prepare the soil Gardenia is suitable for planting in loose, fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Sandy loam and peat soil can be mixed in equal proportions, or leaf mold, sandy loam and river sand can be mixed in a ratio of two to two to one and disinfected. 3. Slow down the seedlings Plant the gardenia in the prepared soil and place it in a well-ventilated semi-shaded place. Do not expose it to direct sunlight, water it or fertilize it at this time to prevent the plant from rotting its roots. After 1-2 weeks, you can move it to a bright place for maintenance. Things to note when repotting gardeniaGardenia should not be repotted during the hot summer or rainy season, as the success rate is very low. It should also not be done during the flowering period or when there are flower buds. In addition, the new pot should be one size larger than the previous one, and the soil should have the same properties as the previous soil, otherwise it will affect its subsequent growth. |
