How to repair the roots of golden bullets

Does the golden bullet need root trimming?

The golden ball plant needs root pruning, but during the transplanting process, it is wrapped in the seedling-acclimatization stage and its root system's absorption capacity is basically lost, making it unable to provide the tree with the nutrients and water needed for growth in time.

Do you need to trim the roots of a newly bought plant? When you put the newly bought golden ball plant in a pot, you need to trim the roots. Remove the dead roots, overly dense roots, and overly long main roots. Also, thin out the branches. The branches and leaves can be trimmed more sparsely.

Does hydroponics require root pruning?

1. Root pruning : After removing most of the sand and soil adhering to the roots of the golden ball plant, you need to use sterilized scissors to prune the roots. Cut off the dry roots, diseased roots, broken roots and other bad roots, leaving only healthy roots.

2. Soil preparation : It is recommended to use humus soil from the mountain for new potting soil, but it must be fermented and decomposed before use. If you have made water-absorbing stone bonsai, you can mix the remaining powder with humus soil, which is very good for the growth of plants.

3. Potting : After the preparations are ready, replant the golden ball plant with new potting soil, and then water it thoroughly as rooting water. After that, place the potted plant in a cool and ventilated place to slow down the growth. Generally, after a period of maintenance, the plant will be able to resume growth smoothly. After adapting to the pot, normal maintenance and management can be resumed.

Root pruning and potting of succulent plants

After removing the tree stump from the original pot, rinse off the soil at the roots with water, trim the old and tangled roots, and at the same time perform coiling and sterilization treatment in potassium permanganate solution. Then you can change the soil and repot it.

Root washing: After the roots of the golden balls have been processed and the above preparations have been made, you can dip the roots in rooting powder and plant them directly. After planting, you can put a plastic bag on the stump, but the plastic bag must have holes for ventilation, which is conducive to faster rooting and germination of the golden balls.

Maintenance of succulent plants after root pruning and repotting

Watering: When you just repot the golden ball plant, you need to water it thoroughly in time. And before it fully recovers, the soil in the pot should be kept slightly moist. This is more conducive to the breathing of the root system and can shorten the recovery time.

Sunbathing: During the period of repotting and seedling acclimatization, the light should be reduced to avoid excessive sun exposure and the plant should be placed in a secluded place for management. This can reduce the evaporation and consumption of water and avoid insufficient water supply.
