When is the best time to change soil and pots?

With the growth of the Monarch Orchid plant, it is necessary to transplant and divide the pot in time according to the situation to ensure the normal growth conditions of the plant. When changing the pot, if the pot diameter is too large and the plant body is very small, the potting soil is not easy to dry after watering, which is easy to cause water and rotten roots, which will affect the growth; If the pot size is too small, the plant body is large, and the nutrient soil is too little, which also affects the growth and development. From an ornamental point of view, small pots and large flowers, large pots and small flowers, all lose the symmetry of proportion, which hinders the viewing.

Plants that have been cultivated for many years must be repotted and changed due to nutrient soil nutrient consumption, soil compaction, poor aeration, fertilizer retention, water retention and permeability. Generally, in spring and autumn, the orchid has to be divided into pots and changed soil. However, repotting during flowering should be avoided.

Extended information: Requirements and methods for changing pots and soils for Gentleman's Orchid:

The requirements for repotting of the junzi orchid are as follows: seedlings with 1 leaf, every 4 6 plants are planted in a pot with a diameter of 10 cm; 2 seedlings with 3 leaves, each 2 3 plants are planted in a pot with a diameter of 10 cm; 3 Small seedlings with 5 leaves, each planted in a pot with a diameter of 10 cm; 5 Large seedlings with 8 leaves, each planted in a pot with a diameter of 13 cm; 8 large seedlings with 10 leaves, each planted in a pot with a diameter of 16 20 cm; 10 15-leaf mature plants, each planted in a pot with a diameter of 20 23 cm; 15 Mature plants with 20 leaves, each planted in a pot with a diameter of 26 cm; 20 Mature plants with 25 leaves, each planted in a pot with a diameter of 33-40 cm. The interval between repotting of Junzi Orchid, seedlings and mature plants, it is generally advisable to change pots once every 2 years, and changing pots too often will damage the root system of Junzi Orchid plants, which is not conducive to its growth and development.

Flowering age orchid plants should generally be repotted and repotted once a year after flowering.

When changing pots, first take out the orchid plants from the pot, hold the false bulb with the left hand, turn the pot upside down, push the drainage hole with the fingers of the right hand and push it outward, hold the pot soil with the palm of the left hand, and gently pat the right hand to pour out the plant. For larger plants at the adult stage, it can also be operated by 2 people, so that one person will not be able to support the heavy pot. After pouring out the plants, shake off the old soil on the root system, remove the rotten roots and shriveled old roots that have no absorption capacity, and remove some senescent roots without root hairs to promote the vigorous growth of new roots after changing the pot.

When planting, the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot should be covered with broken pot pieces, and the gap should be left to fill the pot with 2 5 cm thick nutrient soil, and then put the roots of the plant into the pot. If the roots are very long, the root system can also be coiled up and filled with nutrient soil. For large plants at the mature stage, it is necessary to fill the hollow part of the root outside the pot, and then put it into the pot, so as not to fill the soil in the pot.

When the pot is filled with soil, it should be gently pressed or shaken up and down a few times to enrich each part. However, do not over-compact it so as not to interfere with loose breathability. After changing the pot, the orchid should be watered thoroughly, and the water at the bottom of the pot should be limited.

After changing the pot, place the orchid in the shade to keep the potting soil moist. After 10 to 15 days, move it to a semi-shaded area and resume normal management.

The time to change the soil and repot of the Junzi Orchid is best in spring and autumn when the Junzi Orchid has just entered the growth period, and it should be combined with its flowering period has passed, otherwise it can not be changed for the soil and pot. Repotting can be done in both the morning and afternoon, as long as the aftermath is taken care of. The main purpose of changing the soil and changing the pot is to promote its growth, therefore, the temperature is best to choose about 20, this temperature is particularly suitable for the growth of the orchid, at this time, it will not affect the growth of the orchid due to the change of pots and soil, and it is also conducive to its slow seedling.

Choosing a pot suitable for the growth of the orchid is not the more delicate the better, but according to the growth habits of the orchid. Orchid likes well-drained and breathable soil, so we can choose some tile pots and glazed pots, which are good for drainage and ventilation.

To choose a pot of the right size, we have to choose according to the size of the orchid. Can not small flowers and large pots, small flowers and small roots, less water requirements, if the pot is large and the soil is large, the soil is dry for a long time, and it is easy to cause root rot. Can not large flowers and small pots, which will make the nutrient soil too little, the root system can not be stretched, affecting the growth of the orchid, it is best to choose a symmetrical pot with the proportion of the orchid, so that it is beautiful and coordinated.

The choice of nutrient soil, we can choose humus, pine needles, river sand, cinder, livestock manure blending, these materials are also easy to get, that is, save money, but also especially suitable for the growth of the soil requirements of the orchid. The soil needs to be moist, grasp it into a ball with your hands, and loosen it to disperse.

Special attention should be paid to the planting of the central part of the root of the gentleman's orchid must be filled with soil, so that the soil and the root are in close contact. If there is no soil in the roots, water and nutrients cannot reach the roots, and the fleshy roots of the orchid will rot. The roots should not touch the pot wall and the bottom of the pot, which is easy to cause root damage, which is not conducive to the growth of Junzi orchid.

You can change the pot at any time, but if you don't have to change it, it is better to change the pot in late autumn or early spring, because these two time periods, one is the plant enters the dormant period, and the other is just awakened.

It is best to change the soil and repot in autumn. Autumn repotting is conducive to the accumulation of nutrients and supply flower buds, so the best time to repot should be in autumn. In the case of Dalian, it is better to change the soil after mid-September.

Repot at any time, but if it is not necessary, it is advisable to repot in late autumn or early spring, because there are two time periods, one plant enters the dormant phase and one plant enters the dormant phase. The other has just woken up. During this time, replanting minimizes damage.

Cultivation soil is prepared using a mixture of humus, garden soil and peat soil. 3. Pruning: Cut off the rotten and withered roots of the orchid, and then spray disinfectant on it.

4. Repotting: Plant the orchid into the soil and water it once a week.

Monarch orchid repotting time.

It is beneficial to change the soil in the spring and autumn of the year to change the soil, which is conducive to the growth of the orchid, but many people do not know when it is best to change the soil in autumn, and when the orchid changes the soil in the autumn, it is best to choose in September and October, which can make the orchid quickly adapt to the new soil.

In addition to changing the soil in September and October in autumn, it is also necessary to change the soil in April and May in spring to prevent the temperature from being too high and the climate is too dry in summer, resulting in soil compaction, affecting the normal growth of Orchid, thereby reducing the ornamental value of Orchid, and the growth may cause the whole plant to wither and die.

Soil change method: every time you change the soil of the Junzi orchid, you need to choose loose soil, strong air permeability, high fertility, rich humus soil, we can plant it into the humus soil, add some garden soil, sawdust according to the ratio of 5:3:2 mix to make the substrate for soil change.

How to water the orchid after changing pots.

Under normal circumstances, can you water after moving the pot, it is best not to water, the root system at this time is relatively fragile, if it is too much watering, the root system can not absorb water, so there will be rotten roots, and it is not conducive to the plant to adapt to the surrounding environment, so it is best to spray water to make the soil in a damp but not wet state.

It usually takes about 1 week to adapt to the surrounding environment, at this time, the soil can be watered thoroughly at one time, but there is still no water accumulation, and the leaf core can not be stained with water when watering, otherwise the leaf core is easy to rot, and the watering needs to be carried out along the edge of the pot.

When moving the pot, it also needs to be placed in a cool environment, so as to help the plant adapt to the surrounding environment, if the light is relatively strong, it will accelerate the loss of water, and it is not conducive to the growth of the plant.

When changing the pot, you also need to prune its root system, remove the rotten and aging root system, retain the healthy and vigorous root system, and then soak it in carbendazim for half an hour, and then soak it in the rooting powder for 20 to 30 minutes.

Hello, I'm glad to be able to answer for you, and the information you are asking here is as follows. It is suitable for repotting in spring and autumn every year, with spring in March and autumn in August. I hope my answer can help you, and I wish you a happy life and all the best!

Question: What should I pay attention to when changing pots?

What should I pay attention to when changing pots?

Repotting: Remove the orchid from the original pot, prune and sterilize the roots, and then plant it in a new pot.

In spring, the Junzi orchid is repotted with pine needle soil + river sand with soil, and then used rotten sheep manure as base fertilizer, and the leaves are green and grow fast!

Orchid is generally practiced in spring and autumn, and it is generally best to do it twice a year. In addition, there are some special cases, such as the plant is infected with a disease. Soil change in the spring is generally to protect the plant from root rot and disease during the hot summer months.

The purpose of soil change in autumn is to allow the plants to bloom better in the spring. Sick.

It can reduce disease damage.

Change it once a year, because the growth rate of the seedlings is relatively fast, if you do not replace the potting soil, first of all, the size of the pot is not suitable for its growth, and secondly, the soil is not conducive to its growth after being used for a long time. If it is an adult plant, it can be changed once every 2-3 years, mainly according to the state of the soil, and it is best to change the pot after the spring has resumed growth, so that it can adapt to the environment faster.

It is suitable for repotting in spring and autumn every year, when the temperature is suitable and the survival rate of the plant is higher.

When changing pots, use humus, pine needles, river sand, and bottom fertilizer at 6:2:1:

1 ratio to prepare the base soil. Orchid is suitable for growing in loose and breathable slightly acidic soils, so humus soil is generally used in the preparation of soils. Although the humus soil is fertile and permeable, its sparse silver bridge loose air permeability has a period, which can generally only be maintained for about half a year.

After changing the potting soil in autumn, if you do not replace the new soil for planting, then after entering the summer, the air permeability of the soil will become very poor, which will seriously hinder the respiration of the roots, and even directly cause the rot of the root system.

Gentleman's orchid method of changing soil and potting

Tilt the pot on its side, then gently tap the side wall of the pot with your hand, grasp the plant with one hand and gently pull it outward, detaching the plant from the potting soil. It should be noted that water control needs to be carried out a few days before depotting, so that the soil becomes dry and more conducive to depotting, and it is not easy to lose roots.

After the sharp pot, it is necessary to do some treatment on the root system, prune off all the rotten roots, weak roots and old roots, and then soak them in carbendazim solution for a while, do a good job of disinfection measures to avoid infection with germs in the later stage, and finally put them in a ventilated place for air drying. Place a layer of crushed tiles at the bottom of the new pot, then fill it with some prepared new soil, which can be mixed with humus, pine needles and cinder, and finally place the plants in the middle and fill them with soil.

The best time to change ground is between March and April.

Orchid is suitable for growing in a warm environment, the best time to change the soil between March and April, the environment and temperature at this time are the most conducive to its growth, after the soil change in spring, the right environmental conditions will speed up the growth rate of its flowers, but also conducive to its early breeding buds.

To change the soil of the orchid, you need to use loose and breathable, well-drained and humus-rich sandy soil, the pH value of the soil is better, we can use humus, pine needles, river sand or furnace ash and bottom fertilizer according to 6:2:1:

The ratio of 1 is mixed and prepared, and the soil must be disinfected before using Shanxinwu.

Precautions for raising Junzi Orchid:

1. Pay attention to avoid exposure to the sun in summer or season: in the environment of high temperature and strong light in summer, it will cause leaf burns. Therefore, it should be placed in a semi-shaded environment and do a good job of shading measures.

2. Pay attention to low temperature in winter: the temperature of Junzi Orchid needs to be kept at about 18 after the arrow, and the temperature difference between day and night is controlled at about 10, otherwise it is easy to trap the arrow.

3. Pay attention to pests and diseases: Although Junzi Orchid likes fertilizer, thick fertilizer will provoke pests and diseases, so avoid applying thick fertilizer. At the same time, the humidity of the growing environment should not be too high, and the soil should be kept permeable and clean.

Watering should avoid stagnant water and dampness, so that if you do a good job in management, it is not easy to worry about pests and diseases.

1. Repotting time.

Generally, it is best to choose in spring and autumn, around March and October, these two time periods are better, the temperature should not be higher than 35 degrees, and not lower than 10 degrees, this temperature range to change the pot, is very beneficial to the growth of the monarch orchid. However, the high temperature in summer and low temperature in winter make it difficult to take the pot after changing the pot, which affects the survival and growth and flowering, and it is not suitable to change the pot.

2. Change the potting soil.

You can use rotten leaf fertilizer to change the pot of Junzi Orchid, which has the advantage of being suitable for pH, loose and relatively permeable and water retention. If there is no humus fertilizer, you can choose your own humus fertilizer, because there is no capillary root, so as long as you do not break the fleshy root of the orchid, changing the pot will not affect the growth of the orchid. You can choose a tile pot, or a clay pot, a purple sand pot, and try not to use a porcelain pot, which is not conducive to drainage and ventilation.

3. Bottom fertilizer selection.

Junzi orchid likes fertilizer, and the growth rate of roots and leaves is relatively fast when it is properly maintained, so it is recommended to add base fertilizer when changing pots. The bottom fertilizer used for the orchid can be placed in one-third of the bottom of the pot, and the bottom fertilizer used for the orchid can choose organic fertilizer, which can effectively supplement the elements of the micro orange shed, and can also avoid the compaction of the potting soil.

4. Root pruning.

When repotting the Junzi orchid, if the root system is healthy, you can not prune the original root system, you can take the old * planting when transplanting, and replace it with new soil, if the root system has old roots, or the roots of pests and diseases, or weak roots, you can prune it and then soak it with carbendazim, disinfect and sterilize, and then plant it.

5. Fill in the information.

When repotting the orchid, the root system of the orchid is relatively thick and dense, and it is slowly filled when filling * to ensure that the gaps between the roots are filled with plants and materials. If you don't fill the gap between the roots and the round roots, some of the roots of the orchid will be hollow, and it will become empty due to lack of water or nutrients, so you must pay attention.

6. Management after repotting.

After changing the pot for the orchid, it should be placed in a cool and ventilated place, and it is enough to wait for the pot. The temperature is between 15 and 28 degrees, and it can grow smoothly in pots in about 20 days. Before changing the pot and not serving the pot, you should control the watering, the potting soil is not dry and not watered, too much watering may cause root rot.

Until it grows in pots, gradually see direct light or increase the amount of watering to promote growth.
