Does Chlorophytum comosum need root pruning?Chlorophytum grows very fast and has a very developed root system. The roots can cover the entire pot in half a year. Although it has a developed root system, it is also prone to root rot. Even if there is no root rot, there will be many old roots, which will not only make the limited pot space quickly become crowded, but also consume a lot of nutrients, so root trimming is necessary. The golden spider plant I just bought online needs to have its roots trimmed because its roots are intertwined and entangled with each other, affecting the breathing of the roots and needs to be pruned in time. If you are growing golden pothos in water, you also need to trim the roots, because too many roots will compete for nutrients and cause root rot. The rotten parts should be disposed of in time. Pruning the roots of Chlorophytum comosum and potting itAppropriately cut off part of the roots. Before potting the spider plant, you need to put fertile soil at the bottom, then put the plant in it, and then stretch its roots to a natural state, ensuring that the roots can grow freely and unimpeded around, and then fill in the soil and press the soil appropriately. Chlorophytum comosum root washing treatmentRemove the soil from the roots and clean them. After washing, soak them in a carbendazim solution for 10 to 20 minutes for disinfection and sterilization. Golden Edge Chlorophytum Drying Roots and PottingAfter pruning the roots of the plant, just dry the roots in time and place it in a well-ventilated location. You will see the wound healing in about half a day. After the wound is dry and healed, you can put it in the pot. Maintenance of Chlorophytum comosum after root pruning1. Don't water it thoroughly the first time. It will take some time for it to recover its growth rate. You can reduce the number of watering and keep the soil slightly moist. 2. Give it a comfortable environment and good indoor ventilation. It can grow normally in a place with bright light. If you want it to grow faster, you can expose it to more sunlight, but be sure to avoid direct sunlight in summer. |
