June snow is a common potted plant and is often used as home decoration and gift giving. However, over time, the originally small and exquisite June snow is likely to grow slowly or die due to over-developed roots or insufficient nutrients. Correctly replacing the basin of June snow is necessary and also a technical task. The following will introduce you to the key steps and techniques to make your flowers grow healthily.
When will the
be changed?
The timing of pot change is a critical step, and it is best to do it in spring or autumn. If you find that the soil is drying out very quickly or has poor water permeability, it means it's time to change the pots.
How to choose the right flower pot?
When selecting flowerpots, it is best to choose ceramic flowerpots with good air permeability and avoid using plastic flowerpots with poor air permeability. At the same time, the size of the flowerpot should also be moderate, preferably slightly larger than the original flowerpot, to facilitate the growth and development of June snow.
How to prepare new soil?
Before changing pots, new soil needs to be prepared. It is best to choose nutritious soil with good air permeability and add appropriate amount of decomposed organic fertilizer. Place new soil into the pot and fill it approximately one-third.
How to remove the original flower pot?
Before changing pots, properly water June snow to make its roots moist, making it easier to remove the original flowerpot. Hold the bottom of the flowerpot and shake it gently to loosen the June snow, then gently pull out the root system.
How to prune roots?
After removing the original flowerpot, the roots need to be trimmed. Trim old, rotten or too long roots to keep healthy roots, and use small scissors to cut broken roots.
How can the
adapt to the new basin?
Put June snow into a new pot and add new soil around. Be careful not to over-compress the soil to avoid affecting water penetration. Correct the posture of snow in June and gently pat the surrounding of the flowerpot with your hand to facilitate the new flowerpot to adapt.
How to water?
After changing the pot, you need to water appropriately. When watering, inject water into the bottom of the pot to allow the soil to absorb enough water. Also be careful not to over-water to avoid root sludge.
How to maintain the right temperature and humidity?
June snow is more suitable for growing in an environment of 15 - 20 ° C, and also requires a certain degree of humidity. After changing the basin, it is best to place it in a well-ventilated and sunny position, and spray a suitable amount of water mist frequently to maintain humidity.
How to fertilize?
In the first month after the pot change, there is no need to fertilize June snow so that it can gradually adapt to the new environment. After that, you can apply fertilizer once a week and pay attention to controlling the amount of fertilizer used.
How to prevent pests and diseases?
After changing pots, it is necessary to check the leaves and roots of June Snow frequently to detect and deal with pest and disease problems in a timely manner to avoid causing unnecessary damage to June Snow.
How to avoid sun exposure?
Although June snow is relatively resistant to shade, it also requires moderate sunlight. In the first month after changing the basin, it is best to place it in a position where it does not directly radiate sunlight to gradually adapt to the new environment. After that, it can be appropriately moved to a sunny position.
How to trim moderately?
Moderate pruning is also needed during the June snow growth process. Timely pruning of branches and leaves can help promote the growth of new buds and maintain good plant shape.
How to change the basin regularly?
Changing pots is not a one-time job, but needs to be carried out regularly. It is best to change the pots once a year to avoid problems such as overly developed roots or insufficient nutrition.
How to judge the growth status of snow in June?
By observing flowers, leaves and roots, we can judge the growth status of June snow. If you find that the leaves have turned yellow or the roots are too dense, you need to consider changing the pot.
Correctly changing the pot of June snow is the key to maintaining the healthy growth of flowers. By selecting suitable flowerpots, preparing new soil, pruning roots, adjusting temperature and humidity and other steps, the growth of snow in June can be ensured. I hope the introduction in this article can be helpful to you.
