What kind of potting soil should be used for Begonia

Selection of Begonia flower pots

When growing crabapples, you must choose the flower pots reasonably and use pots with suitable materials and volumes so that the crabapples can grow well.

Clay pots are economical and practical, and have good water permeability. However, it is easy to break. Plastic pots are relatively light and durable, but their water permeability and air permeability are relatively poor. If the plant is not resistant to water and moisture, it is not suitable to use plastic pots. Using porcelain pots to grow flowers is more beautiful, but it is difficult to master the methods of watering and fertilizing, which can easily cause the plants to die.

When choosing a flower pot, it is generally recommended to choose a pot with a diameter of about 15 cm. Note that during the cultivation process, you should change the pot as the plant grows and replace it with a larger pot.

When repotting, be sure to ensure that the plant is still partially soiled, and do not plant the crabapple too deep.
