Jade plant is one of the most popular indoor foliage plants, famous for its thick and green leaves, beautiful shape, and easy maintenance. During its maintenance process, timely repotting is a necessary maintenance measure, which is beneficial to the healthy growth of the plant. So when is the best time to repot your jade plant? Let’s learn more about it below. When is the best time to repot a jade plant? The best time to repot jade plants is usually in spring and autumn, because the temperatures in these two seasons are suitable, which is conducive to the recovery and growth of the plant. Specifically, it is generally recommended to repot in March-April in spring and August-September in autumn. How to repot jade plant? 1. Cut off water and remove basin Cut off water appropriately before repotting. After the soil is slightly dry, take the jade plant out of the original pot and gently break up the soil around the soil lump to keep the core. 2. Root cleaning Inspect the roots carefully, remove old soil, and cut out any dead or diseased roots. If the root system is too dense, you can prune it appropriately to promote the growth of new roots. 3. Pot soil preparation Jade plant does not have high requirements for soil, but fertile, well-drained soil is more conducive to its growth. You can use ordinary river sand soil or coal slag soil, and then mix it with half nutrient soil, or leaf mold. As for pots, it is best to choose coarse pottery, red pottery pots, unglazed pots, etc. with good drainage and air permeability. 4. Transplantation Begin by laying a layer of pebbles or expanded clay in the bottom of the new pot to enhance drainage. Then add an appropriate amount of newly prepared soil, place the jade plant in the center, and continue to fill in the remaining soil until it is filled to the appropriate height. Gently compact the soil, but do not use too much force to avoid damaging the roots. 5. Post-maintenance Place the jade plant in a cool and ventilated place to grow slowly, avoiding direct sunlight. After a week, if the leaves of the plant are plump and thick, you can gradually increase the light and resume normal maintenance. In general, repotting jade plants is not difficult, but you must pay attention to the timing and some operational details. Doing this correctly can not only promote their healthy growth, but also extend their ornamental life.
