Transplanting gardenias is a difficult task. The first is the issue of time. Except for February and October, other times are not suitable for survival. Secondly, pay attention to water control before transplanting, and prune the branches and leaves, so as to effectively conserve water. In addition, when transplanting, the roots must be processed to remove old and bad roots. Finally, fill the pot with soil and bag it if the humidity is not enough.

1. Transplanting time

1. Transplanting time

The time for transplanting gardenias is generally recommended in spring and autumn, with February and October being suitable. Do not transplant in the summer or rainy season, nor during the flowering period. This will greatly affect the survival rate and cause it to not survive the slow seedling period.

2. Water control

Water control is required before transplanting. Make sure the potting soil is dry, so that the potting soil and the flowerpot can be better separated. If there is a lot of potting soil, you can remove part of it before transplanting.

3. Prune the branches and leaves

The branches and leaves need to be pruned before transplanting. Cut off horizontal branches, weak branches, and overlapping branches, as well as larger leaves. This will help the plant retain water.

4. Root treatment

After taking the plant out of the pot, treat the roots. The main thing is to cut off old and bad roots to avoid infection with germs after repotting.

5. Fill the pot with soil

Before placing the pot, you need to place a few tiles on the bottom of the pot. Then fill it with 2-3 cm of nutrient soil, and place the plant on it and start filling it with soil. The filling should not be filled with soil to facilitate watering.

6. Bagging and moisturizing

If the growth is weak and the air humidity is not high, you can put a plastic bag on it after changing the basin. Spray water inside the bag first to maintain air humidity. Cover the bag halfway and take it off every 5 hours to let it air out.
