Repotting of red plums is suitable after flowering. If repotted at this time, the time for it to adapt will be shortened. Note that you cannot change the pot during the peak flowering period. If you damage its root system at this time, it will prolong the recovery time and affect its flowering. Use clean soil when changing pots. After potting, keep them in a cool place and avoid sunlight immediately.

1. Appropriate repot time

Repot red plum should be done after it has finished flowering. This is also the time when its growth is relatively vigorous, so it needs to be repotted slowly after repotting. Pot time is shorter. Be sure not to repot during the peak flowering period, and do not repot within 60 days before flowering. If you change the pot at this time, its root system will be damaged due to improper operation, which will not only lengthen the recovery time, but also be detrimental to its flowering in the second year.

2. Precautions

1. Although the red plum plant has lower requirements for pot soil, in order to allow it to grow better, peat soil, leaf mold soil and garden soil can be mixed. And it is best to dry it in the sun before use, which can reduce damage to its root system.

2. When changing pots, the roots of the plants can be removed. There is a small portion of old soil, which allows it to better adapt to the new environment. Exposed dead roots, rotten roots, etc. must be cut off to avoid increasing nutrient consumption.

3. After repotting, you need to water it immediately, but it cannot see sunlight immediately. It is best to put it in a cooler place first, and wait for the red plum to adapt to the new potting soil. Accept the light again.
