Tradescantia transplanting

The plants of Tradescantia need to be transplanted in pots when changing pots or cutting propagation. In fact, the method of transplanting is not difficult. The general process is to prepare the flower pot, fill the soil, put it in the pot, and do a good job in the management and maintenance after transplanting

When transplanting Tradescantia, suitable soil should be selected. The ratio of vegetable garden soil and slag, garden soil, medium coarse river sand, sawdust, one of paddy soil, pond mud and rotten leaf soil, or the ratio of peat, perlite and ceramsite can be selected and prepared according to a certain proportion

Before transplanting Tradescantia, a layer of coarse-grained matrix or ceramsite should be placed at the bottom of the pot as a filter layer to let the soil breathe and improve the drainage of the soil. Sprinkle a layer of rotten organic fertilizer on this layer of filter water as the base fertilizer, and finally sprinkle the matrix. Fill up the soil

Then put the plants of Tradescantia into the pot, dig a small hole in the middle of the soil, put the roots of Tradescantia in, and pay attention to separating the fertilizer from the roots to avoid burning the roots. After putting on the basin, water it once, and then put the Tradescantia in the shade environment for maintenance

Attention to transplanting and maintenance of Tradescantia

First, control watering. After the transplanting of Tradescantia, we should make great efforts in watering. At ordinary times, we should keep the basin soil moist, but not too wet, so as to avoid the root rot of Tradescantia, but we should not be too dry. Too dry will lead to less leaves of Tradescantia, empty growth of plants, weak growth and smaller leaves. In addition to paying attention to watering, it is also necessary to often spray water on the leaf surface

Second, rational fertilization. Tradescantia has a certain demand for fertilizer. Only when there is a large amount of fertilizer can it grow vigorously and its leaves are hypertrophic, so liquid fertilizer should be applied frequently
