The role of changing the soil and potting of spider plantsThe reason why the soil and pots are changed during the planting process of spider plants is that the nutrients in the potting soil are gradually consumed after the spider plants have grown for one or two years. There is not enough nutrition, which affects its growth. It will only grow slower and weaker, so the pots and soil should be changed in time. When changing the soil and potting of spider plants, you should use fertile soil, preferably a mixture of leaf mold and coal slag. Water it appropriately, once every 3 days, and fertilize it frequently, preferably once every 20 days. Also ensure sufficient light, but do not expose it to strong light. How to change the soil and pot of spider plantRemoval from the pot : Stop watering the spider plant for a week before changing the soil or pot. This will make it easier to remove from the pot and will not easily damage the root system. If there are rotten areas after removing from the pot, cut off the rotten areas and apply carbendazim powder. Prepare the soil : It is best to grow spider plants with fertile sandy loam, humus soil and peat soil. It is best to add a small amount of base fertilizer to increase air permeability and drainage. This will not only help the spider plants to breathe, but also provide them with nutrients. Planting : Before potting, you need to remove some of the original soil on the roots of the plant, trim the roots, cut off some dead and diseased roots, let them dry for a while, and then plant them directly in the prepared potting soil. Maintenance of Chlorophytum after changing soilWatering : After changing the soil of the spider plant, you need to water it immediately to keep the soil in the pot slightly moist, but don't water it too frequently, otherwise the roots will easily rot. You can spray it with water more often. Fertilization : Do not apply fertilizer to the spider plant after changing the soil, as it will damage the root system. You must wait until the plant has adapted to the pot before applying fertilizer. Liquid fertilizer can be used, as this type of fertilizer is easier to absorb. Pruning : After changing the soil of the spider plant, yellow leaves will appear. In order to prevent them from spreading, they should be pruned clean as soon as possible. In addition, part of the root system should be pruned off, which will make it grow faster. Light : After changing the soil, the spider plant cannot be exposed to strong or long-term light immediately. It is best to place it in a ventilated and cool place for a period of time, and then slowly expose it to light after the plant has adapted to the pot. |
