Transplanting indoor plants
Indoor plants grow and expand, and therefore need to be transplanted. If you are going to transplant for the first time, prepare in advance the necessary container for transplantation, soil, crushed coal (in case of root damage), water and fertilizers.
When can I start the transfer
It is strictly forbidden to transplant plants immediately after purchase. Give him time to relax, settle into your family, and you, in turn, study your new "tenant" and make friends with him. Usually, it takes about 4 weeks to adapt a plant in the house, maybe a little less. Adaptation is necessary for the plant to get used to new living conditions, water quality, emotional atmosphere, and air. It is not necessary to transplant plants in winter, for most plants, the ideal time for transplantation is spring or the end of winter (February), for some - late autumn.
Transplant carefully, trying not to damage the roots, trim only the damaged ones. After purchase, do not try to replace the soil immediately, be patient.
When transplanting, it is impossible to wash the roots from the previous soil under running water, and in principle with water. Even if a huge clod of earth has grown around the roots, transplant the plant together with this clod, the exception is clearly damaged roots with visible mucus and mold. The appearance of mold indicates a disease of the plant and it must be thoroughly washed from the parasitic fungus in order to avoid sudden "death" of the plant. When buying a plant with a large markdown, it is worth examining the roots – if you notice an obvious blackening or softening of the roots with an unpleasant (rotten) smell, quickly remove the damaged parts and transplant them into a new pot with a large addition of peat or mineral fertilizers.
Signs of the need for a plant transplant
In order not to confuse the novice gardener, there are several general rules that require immediate transplantation, despite the wrong time or lack of your mood:
1. The roots of the plant climb out of the ground (requires a medium-term transplant).
2. The roots have completely entwined the space of the pot (also requires a medium-term transplant).
3. Poor condition of the roots or a pungent smell of (rotten) soil (requires urgent transplantation).
4. Other problems related to the growth and development of the plant.
Bans on transplanting
It is strictly not allowed to transplant a flower during flowering, it can cause the buds to fall off and the leaves to drop. Do not transplant during stress or illness, wait for a full recovery and transplant. You can not wash the roots under running water, to combat parasites – use chemical compounds sold in flower shops.
Soil requirements
The soil should be prepared in advance, without haste. When preparing the soil mixture, take into account the wishes of the plants themselves, do not transplant plants with a foreign soil composition. The main condition of the soil is sterility, before planting, fry it in a frying pan or treat it with a chemical agent. These actions will kill pests and their larvae, and will forever protect your plant from harmful effects.
