The method of dividing basin

1. Split the mother plant: carefully remove the vigorous mother plant from the basin, loosen and shake off the soil mass on the root system. After the use of disinfected tools to cut young plants, pay attention not to cut too much, one or two on the line, but also with roots, more conducive to survival.

2. Planting into the soil: planting can be carried out after separation. First dig a small hole on the prepared basin soil surface, and then put the young plants in the hole, and then compact the soil. Then water and let the root system and soil closely, which is more conducive to rooting.

3. Later maintenance: the plant just planted in the soil can't see the direct light in a hurry. It should be maintained in the half shade first, and new roots can grow about one month later. Then, it can be maintained and managed normally to increase the light.
