How to change the soil of orange trees and the time and method of changing the soil

When to change the soil of orange trees

Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to change the soil of orange trees in spring. Spring is the period of vigorous growth for the plants, and it is easier for them to survive if the soil is changed at this time. The specific time for changing the soil should be adjusted according to the local climate.

It is best not to change the soil in summer. If you want to change the soil, you can do it in spring, because the temperature in summer is too high, which is not conducive to the growth of plants after changing the soil.

When should the orange tree be transplanted?

The best time to change the soil and transplant orange trees is in spring from March to April. This period is when the survival rate of transplanted orange trees is relatively high, and the trees can also take root as soon as possible after changing the soil and transplanting.
