When is the best time to repot the fortune tree?

1. Repotting in spring

Generally speaking, the money tree needs to be repotted about once every one to two years. If the growth is not good, it is best to replace it once a year. There is no need to change the soil of a newly purchased money tree, otherwise it will easily affect the original shape of the plant. Considering factors such as temperature, it is best to repot the money tree in spring.

2. Repotting method

(1) First, check whether the original flower pot meets the requirements based on the specific size of the plant. If it is too small, you need to replace it with a larger pot. If the plant does not change significantly in size, then you don't need to replace it.

(2) Then comes the preparation of the soil. You can use garden soil, river sand, and sawdust in a ratio of three to one to one. If you feel that the nutrients in it are not enough, you can also add some base fertilizer, such as bean cake, animal manure, etc.

(3) Before potting, trim the roots. Take out the plant, clean the soil around the roots, and then cut off the rotten roots, dry roots, and diseased roots.

(4) The next step is to put the plants in the pot. Place the plant in the center of the pot. When filling the soil, be careful not to damage the roots of the plant, otherwise the wound may easily become infected. Also, don't leave any gaps, otherwise it will easily leak.

(5) Pay attention to maintenance after repotting. Do not water right after repotting and ensure ventilation. After about five days, water thoroughly.
