Unpotting and pruning: Take Clivia out of the flower pot, cut off the empty root system, and soak and disinfect it with carbendazim . After drying, it can be replanted.
Prepare the substrate: The substrate can be prepared with leaf mold soil, pine needles, vegetable garden soil and coarse sand. The substrate should be loose and not too hard.
Carry out potting: lay broken tiles on the bottom of the pot, put the substrate into the pot, and plant the treated plants.
Repotting and maintenance: Pour it with fixed root water once to keep the soil moist. Water it thoroughly in the later period and avoid half-watering.
1. Remove the pot and prune it
After the Clivia has empty roots, you need to clean it out of the flower pot, trim off its empty root system, and then soak it in carbendazim solution for a while for disinfection, and finally remove it. Take it out and put it in a ventilated place to dry naturally before planting.
2. Preparing the substrate
The empty roots of Clivia are mostly caused by improper watering. If its root system is not exposed to water for a long time, there will definitely be a part of the root system that is empty. This is different from normal watering and soil. Drainage has a great relationship, so when preparing the soil, you must ensure that the soil is uniform and cannot be half loose and half dense. In this way, the water will drain along the loose side and the other side will be in contact for a long time. No more moisture. When preparing the soil, ensure that the particles are uniform and thoroughly mixed before potting. The preparation matrix is generally prepared with leaf mold soil, pine needles, vegetable garden soil and coarse sand.
3. When potting
when potting, you need to first lay a layer of broken tiles or cinders at the bottom of the flower pot as a permeable layer, then lay a layer of soil, and then put the Clivia with dried roots into the flower pot. . Then gradually add soil to the flower pot to secure the plant, gently pull the plant upward to smooth out its root system, and finally push it downward gently to firm it up.
4. Repotting and maintenance
Immediately after repotting, water it with root-fixing water to keep the soil in a moist state, which can help it recover faster. In the later stage of maintenance, you need to pay attention not to water it halfway, otherwise the soil in the upper layer of the flower pot will be moist, but the soil in the bottom layer will still be dry. In this way, its root system will not be able to absorb water, and empty roots will easily appear after a long time. So when watering, you must see water flowing out of the bottom of the flower pot.
