The pot can be repotted once a year during the seedling stage, and once every 2-3 years after the plant has matured. When repotting, take the plant out of the pot and check if there are any rotten roots. Then cut off all the rotten roots and sprinkle some charcoal powder. Prepare a large pot and prepare new soil, and then plant it after the roots of the plant have dried. Do not water immediately after repotting, wait two days before watering.

1. Repotting method

1. Repotting time: Epiphyllum is repotted once a year when it is a seedling, and once every 2-3 years when it is an adult plant. The time for repotting should be chosen well, usually in spring. The temperature of repotting should be above 12 degrees Celsius. At this time, the temperature is suitable, which is conducive to slowing down the seedlings after repotting.

2. Repot steps: Repot in spring When moving, you should first move it from indoors to outside. At this time, you can repot and change the soil. Carefully pull out the plant, and then check whether there are any bad roots at its roots. If there are bad roots, cut them off, and sprinkle charcoal powder on the cut area to dry. Then find a larger pot, mix the soil and organic fertilizer evenly, and finally put the epiphyllum in it and place it in a semi-shady place.

2. Do you need to water after changing the pot?

Don’t water it after changing the pot. Water it again two days after changing the pot. Epiphyllum likes moist soil. When watering, it should be watered thoroughly without accumulation of water. This is because Epiphyllum is afraid of waterlogging, and accumulation of water in the pot will cause root rot.

In addition, in early spring, late autumn, and winter, due to relatively low temperatures, epiphyllum will be in a semi-dormant state, so watering should be reduced. After the temperature rises in spring, the plants begin to recover. At this time, the amount of water can be increased. Sufficient water absorption will be of great help to the growth of epiphyllum.
