How to transplant Clematis cuttings

1. Transplanting time

The cuttings of clematis can be transplanted after the roots grow out. Generally, cuttings are taken in July and August, and the root system is well developed in October, so transplanting can be carried out at this time. If the temperature is low, you can also transplant it into a small pot and place it in a greenhouse for maintenance. Wait until the spring warms up before transplanting into a new pot.

2. Pot soil preparation

Clematis grows best in fertile soil with good drainage to avoid water accumulation around the roots. Peat soil and perlite can be mixed in a ratio of about 3:1. Add an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer and bone meal to the potting soil to provide nutrients for the growth of the plant.

3. Transplanting

Remove the cuttings from the substrate and remove the soil from the roots. Be careful when removing the soil to avoid damaging its roots. Then place it upright in the pot, fill it with soil, and water it thoroughly.

4. Seedling maintenance

After transplanting, place it in a cool place. Clematis should not be exposed to light at this time. Wait until it recovers and then gradually increase the light. Do not water too much on a daily basis, just keep the soil in the pot slightly moist. Improve the ventilation of the environment to avoid being attacked by pests and diseases.
