Before planting, you can add a little base fertilizer to the good soil, and then topdress the fertilizer later.

3. Weeding

Pay attention to observation Whether there are grasses in the pot soil, if so, they should be pulled out in time to prevent them from continuing to consume nutrients. At the same time, when weeding, the soil can also be loosened to improve soil permeability.
