When is the best time to change the soil for home gardening in spring?

1. Soil replacement time

Spring is more suitable for changing the soil for flowers, but the time to change the soil varies depending on the types of flowers planted by each flower lover. The specific time is related to the growth and adaptability of the flowers themselves. Generally speaking, it can be done around March, April and May. At this time, the plant is just beginning to resume growth, but has not yet grown too vigorously, so it is more suitable to change the soil.

2. Precautions

When changing the soil, it should not be done too early or too late. If you choose too early, the flowers have not started to grow yet, and it is easy to cause root rot after changing the soil. Of course, if the time is chosen too late, if its root system is damaged when changing the soil, it will be difficult to recover and it will also hinder its normal growth.

3. Soil replacement method

1. Remove from the pot: You can choose to do so in the evening or on a cloudy day, tilt the pot and tap it gently, and when the soil and the pot are separated, turn it upside down. After removing the plant from the pot, unhealthy roots, such as old roots and rotten roots, need to be properly trimmed.

2. Change the soil: Put new soil in the flowerpot, then replant the plant, water it thoroughly, and place it in semi-shade.
