The substrate contains various conditions and nutrients needed for the growth and development of Lucky Bamboo, such as water, air, minerals, etc. After a period of cultivation, the above substances in the substrate will be consumed due to its metabolism, resulting in the deterioration of the physical and chemical properties of the substrate, not only the lack of nutrients, but also the poor ability of water permeability and ventilation, which is difficult to support its healthy growth. It will appear some bad phenomenon, light yellow leaves withered, flowering decreased, heavy leaves atrophy, stop growing
At this time, we need to change the pot, plant it into a new substrate, and give it better growth conditions to help it grow more healthily.
1. Prepare the new flowerpot and substrate, disinfect them.
2. Wait for a clear, warm and windless morning or evening, and prepare to change pots.
3. Prepare a large bucket of water. You can use rainwater or tap water for several days.
4. Put the new basin into the water completely, let it absorb water, and prevent it from taking away the water in the substrate.
5. Take out the new basin from the water, pour out the water inside, and put it in place. Pave a layer of small stones or ceramic chips at the bottom to increase the water holding and air permeability of the matrix. Then lay a layer of substrate on it for standby.
6. Pour the old basin through with water, then insert the shovel along the edge of the basin to the bottom of the basin, and turn it around along the basin wall. Then shake the old basin to make the substrate more loose.
7. Take the bamboo with your hand, and take it out with the substrate below.
8. Check the bamboo and substrate taken out, and remove the rotten bamboo and substrate with obvious attachment.
9. Put the processed bamboo into a new basin, and then fill in some matrix. At this time, pay attention not to fill too much, so that the height of the soil is the same as the original height. The substrate is then compacted
10. Put the new basin with bamboo in a cool place and pour sufficient water. Be careful not to let it see the sun directly at this time
