How often should Clivia Miniata be repotted
For most women, the introduction to the common knowledge of caring for Clivia Miniata, how often should Clivia Miniata be repotted? Let's take a look together!
Actually, there is no standard cycle for how often Clivia Miniata should be repotted. Most experienced gardeners believe that the soil should be changed every six months, but there are also gardeners whose Clivia Miniata grows well without being repotted for a year or two. Therefore, the timing of repotting Clivia Miniata can be chosen according to individual needs.
Let's first talk about the timing of repotting Clivia Miniata. Clivia Miniata should be repotted twice a year, in spring and autumn. In the north, repotting is done in April and May during spring and September and October during autumn. In the south, it can be done a month earlier in autumn and a month later in spring. The seasons that are not too hot or too cold are the most suitable for repotting Clivia Miniata.
Tianjin Laodong (the person who cultivated the award-winning orchid on the balcony) believes that the soil should be changed every six months because the nutrients in the soil are exhausted after six months (the issue of aeration after six months was not mentioned).
Harbin Bar's Clivia Miniata believes that the soil should be changed every six months because the aeration of the leaves will become very poor after six months (the issue of nutrition after six months was not mentioned).
Xu Xifeng of Xifeng Orchid Garden believes that repotting Clivia Miniata is necessary to ensure aeration. Using the soil from Clivia Miniata that has been used for half a year for other plants is extremely good, indicating that the nutrients are still present.
Liu Xiaozhong believes that there is no need to repot Clivia Miniata every six months because the mineral decomposition and the activity of beneficial bacteria in the leaf soil are best after six months (the issue of soil aeration and nutrition after six months was not mentioned).
In summary, regarding how often Clivia Miniata should be repotted and why it should be repotted, there seems to be no consensus in the orchid community.
