How to repot Areca palm

1. Time selection

Because the growth of the plant cannot be coordinated with the flowerpot, the pot needs to be changed to ensure growth so that the roots will not be unable to absorb nutrients. Greenhouse farming can be carried out in all four seasons without any restrictions. But under natural conditions, the time is generally chosen from late March to mid-September every year, when the climate is relatively mild and suitable.

2. Methods and Steps

1. Slowly take the plant out of the original pot and gently pat the sides of the pot with your hands. This will vibrate the inside and help separate the plant. Once loosened, hold the plant with one hand and tap the bottom with the other hand so that the plant can come out.

2. Prepare a suitable flower pot that is slightly larger than the original one. Put tiles at the bottom to promote drainage. Then add expanded clay, nutrients and half of the soil, then straighten it out and put it in, fill the surrounding area with soil, and compact it lightly. Note that the roots underneath must be stretched out and not folded, otherwise it will be difficult to take root.

3. After filling the soil, water it thoroughly to help the roots take root. Place it in a cool place with scattered light for maintenance. After the plant adapts, you can switch to normal maintenance.
