It is very important to choose the right time to divide pots. Generally, it is best to divide pots in spring or autumn. If carried out in summer, plants may be affected by excessive sun exposure, while carried out in winter are susceptible to low temperatures.
Water the plants thoroughly Before dividing pots, it is necessary to water the plants thoroughly. This will make it easier for the plant's roots to be removed from the soil and reduce damage to the plant during potting.
Cleaning flower pots Before dividing them into pots, you need to clean new flower pots. If you use old flower pots, make sure they are thoroughly cleaned to avoid infecting pathogens or bacteria.
Remove plants from old pots Care needs to be taken when removing African jasmine from old pots. Tilt the pot and tap it gently with your hand to loosen the plant from the soil. Pull the plant out slowly.
check When dividing roots into pots, you need to check the status of the roots. If any decay or pathogens are seen, they need to be treated with disinfectant.
