Is the fortune tree suitable for a deep or shallow pot?

Should I use a deep or shallow pot for my fortune tree?

The money tree is suitable for planting in deep pots. Its roots grow downward and need sufficient space to grow. If the pot is too shallow, it will hinder the growth of the plant's roots and affect its absorption of nutrients.

It is recommended to plant the Money Tree in a clay pot, as it has the best air permeability and is more conducive to the growth of the plant. In addition, you can also use a purple clay pot, but pots made of this material are relatively expensive.

How to repot a fortune tree

1. Time to repot the fortune tree

The best time to repot the money tree is in spring and autumn, because the plant likes to grow in a warm environment, and spring and autumn are conducive to the plant's rapid resumption of growth.

2. Water the money tree after repotting

When repotting the money tree, water it thoroughly to keep the soil in the pot slightly moist. This will allow the plant's roots to fit better with the soil.

3. Things to note when repotting the fortune tree

(1) Prepare the soil: The money tree requires loose, breathable and fertile soil. You can use leaf mold, coal slag, or sandy soil. Make sure to disinfect it before use.

(2) Planting in a pot: Place a drainage layer at the bottom of the pot, put soil in it, and then plant the money tree. Spray water appropriately to soak the soil.

(3) Post-care: After the money tree is repotted, it can be moved to a cool and ventilated place, taking care to avoid direct strong sunlight. Wait until the plant has adapted to the pot before performing normal care.
