If it is planted in spring, it should be repotted in summer, otherwise it will affect the later growth.But also cannot put in big basin directly, choose the flowerpot with appropriate size.The method is very simple, the root system is directly taken out together with the soil, and then planted in the pot soil.

Seedling repotting can be directly watered thoroughly, so that seedlings and soil can absorb enough water, so that it can adapt to the environment faster and resume growth.If the plant is mature, there is no need to water it in a hurry after repotting, because there will inevitably be wounds in root pruning.First slow down for two or three days and then water the wound after adaptation to avoid infection.
