How to divide the copper coin grass into pots, and when is the best season to divide the copper coin grass into pots

1. Season for dividing the pots

The season for dividing the pennywort into pots is generally in spring and autumn, when the climate is relatively warm, which is more conducive to the plant's recovery. If you change the pot in summer, due to the high temperature, the plant will easily lose too much water after the pot, which will affect its growth and is not conducive to its survival after planting. It is not suitable to carry out this operation in winter because the low temperature is not conducive to growth.

2. Separation from the basin

Pennywort can be grown in soil or water. If it is in a basin of water, it is relatively easy to remove the plant from the basin. Generally, you can just pick out 5-8 plants. If you plant more, you can pull out more. Be careful to bring out more fibrous roots to avoid trauma. If it is grown in soil, the entire soil ball needs to be removed from the pot, and then the plant can be separated by washing the roots.

3. Pot soil preparation

The soil needs to be prepared before planting the pennywort. It is usually made by mixing leaf mold, garden soil and river mud, with the ratio of the three being 5:2:2. This can not only provide certain nutrients, but also good drainage is beneficial to the breathing of the roots. If the soil is too sticky, water will not easily enter the roots, resulting in the plant not having enough water to grow.

4. Planting

Place the separated pennywort into a flowerpot, fill it with soil, and water it appropriately to keep the substrate moist. If it is hydroponically grown, it needs to be placed in clean water, the water needs to be changed every week, and an appropriate amount of nutrient solution needs to be added. After the plant resumes growth and grows small tender leaves, you can apply a small amount of fertilizer once a week.
