Time Gardening, going to change the pots
Time of spring gardening time ... The sun has risen and our plants are awakening from the long winter slumber ready to cheer and refresh with its greenery and colors if it comes to flowers, all the exuberance of the good time we announced the beginning of a new cycle life, a new station that is how we can perhaps best be measured over time people, but back to the garden, let's change pots.
To begin you must know, that your plants are beautiful and happy you have to change pot every two or three years the interior, while the exterior, since according to their development and size.
Change our plant pots is a very important rule of gardening, and failure to do so causes problems such as wear of the substrates and elements of the earth, causing smaller roots that affect the health of our plant.
There are other problems such as obstruction of the drainage of the pot caused by the same roots, along with the land, also running low, it hardens.
All this causes a loss of quality of life for plants, which can not be compensated or with fertilizers or fertilizer, nor changing its orientation toward the light.
Care to make a change of pot
The best season for gardening in general is spring, so a change of pot is no exception, as it is in this season that the plant awakens from winter slumber full of force which manifests itself in growth.
Before placing the earth in the new pot, cover the drainage area with a layer of pebbles that will improve water runoff, preventing excess moisture, which are also harmful. If you have at hand, find them at many stores and supermarkets.
Avoid common garden soil, and also contain weed seeds and not be clear about its quality, compact very quickly and affects the roots. Ideally, use humus prepared with worms that give great wealth to the land, or a mixture of peat with fine sand, to ensure ease any longer.
Do not exaggerate the size of the new pot, a large container does not ensure the health of the plant says another of the principles of gardening.
