Steps to repotting the purple moon

Prepare

Since it is a repotting, of course you need to prepare replacement soil and pots. The specific process is similar to that of planting, which requires the same soil composition ratio as when first planted, mixed with some coarse-grained stones to enhance permeability, and paired with some nutrient-rich base fertilizer, and evenly placed in the new flowerpot.

Transplanting

Carefully take out the Purple Moon Plant from the original flowerpot and gently shake off some of the soil on the roots, although you can keep some of it. However, it is best to leave most of the root system exposed. Because the so-called repotting means changing the soil. If the soil is not changed, then there is no point in repotting.

Colonization
