Generally speaking, money trees need to change pots once a year or two. When the soil is slightly dry, remove the plant from the basin. Then, trim the roots. Prepare new flowerpots and soil. After that, place the plant in a new basin and carefully fill in the soil. At the beginning, do not pour it thoroughly. First, put it in a cool place and wait for the wound to dry. About 12 hours later.

When do I need to change the basin?

Changing basin is very important in the maintenance of money tree. It is inevitable that the soil will agglomerate when it is used for a long time. If not replaced, it is easy to affect the growth of the plant. Therefore, when it is observed that the basin soil appears whitish, or the phenomenon of agglomeration is very serious, it can be said that its fertility has been reduced, and it is necessary to change the basin at this time. Generally speaking, the basin should be changed every one or two years.

2. Specific steps for basin change

(1) take off the basin first. However, if the soil is very wet, it must be dried before taking off the basin. Otherwise, the roots are easy to rot. When it is removed, the root is trimmed. The main task is to cut off rotten roots and old roots. For which roots are dense or too long, prune them as appropriate.

(2) prepare new flowerpots and soil. If the plant grows up, it needs to be replaced with a larger basin. If the original basin is still suitable, it does not need to be replaced. As for the soil, we need to choose the soil which contains more humus, loose and slightly acid.

(3) after that, put the plant into the basin, and then fill in the prepared soil.

(4) do not water the basin just after the basin change. Put it in a cool and ventilated place first. After the wound is basically dried, it can be watered, usually 12 hours later.

(5) after three to five days, it can be radiated by scattered light. However, do not fertilize for half a month.
