1、 How long does it last

Gardenia will grow slowly for about half a month after washing its roots. The specific time depends on the maintenance environment and soil after planting. The environment and soil are suitable and can recover in a week. If the soil is not used properly or the environment is not suitable, the slow seedling period will be extended, about one month, so the method and environment of changing pots are very important

2、 Root washing and basin changing method

1. Root washing: when washing roots, it is best to wash them directly under the faucet, or use a water pipe to reduce root damage. If you dig the soil by hand, the root system is more likely to be damaged, which is not conducive to recovery. After washing, soak it in carbendazim solution for one hour

2. Soil preparation: mix perlite, peat soil, vermiculite and pine needle soil to make the soil slightly acidic, which is more conducive to the recovery of growth

3. On the pot: when on the pot, all the roots should be stretched, and the flowerpot should be shaken left and right after filling, so that the soil can be compacted by itself. Or pour water to let the soil sink, and then fill the soil, so as not to break the root system

4. Maintenance: after planting, properly trim the branches and cut them short, then cover the plants with plastic bags and poke several small holes for ventilation. If not bagged, spray water every day to moisturize. The plastic bag can be opened after two days. When there are new leaves, increase the light and maintain it normally
