When to repot Daphne odora

1. Time selection

Generally speaking, in order to ensure the normal growth of the plants, we will change the flower soil every two years. There is no need to change the soil frequently, but of course it cannot be left unchanged for too long. The best time to repot is in early spring, which is around February to March. Because the buds have not yet begun to sprout, it is more suitable at this time.

2. Specific steps

(1) Choose a pot and soil: Observe the size of the plant. If you think the original pot is too small, you can replace it with a larger and more suitable pot. As for the flower soil, you should choose acidic and loose soil according to the preferences of the plant, and put it in the sun before officially repotting it. This can kill harmful bacteria in the soil in advance.

(2) Repotting: Move the plant out, shake off the soil around the roots, and cut off any old or rotten roots. Place it in a cool, ventilated place for three days to allow the wound to dry. Afterwards, put new soil into the pot and put the plant in, keeping its depth as consistent as possible with the original depth. Afterwards, compact the soil in the pot and water it, making sure to water it as thoroughly as possible.

(3) Post-management: After watering, place the plant in a ventilated, shaded, cool location. After about fifteen days, normal care and management can be carried out.
