Fresh flowers provide an opportunity to get closer to nature itself without going outside. Reasons for appearing in our homes indoor plants a large number. One of the key conditions for care is competent transfer.

When to replant indoor flowers?

Flowers are usually purchased already in pots. After some time, the flower grows, and the need for replanting arises.

The most favorable period is considered to be spring. As a rule, from the end of March to the beginning of May.

During this period of time, the flowers begin to actively grow, as a result of which they tolerate the process more easily.

It is recommended to replant coniferous plants in the summer, when after spring they finish their intensive growth. In hot weather, transplantation will be less successful. Sometimes replanting should be done in winter. But this is a necessary measure, if there are pests in the ground where the plant grows or the soil has begun to become sour, it is necessary to replant, otherwise it may die.

Regular soil is not suitable for replanting. It may become infected with various pests or pathogens, which in a favorable environment will begin to actively reproduce. By irrigating such land, the composition of the soil itself can subsequently be intensively destroyed.

It is better to purchase land in a specialized store. One type of soil is suitable for many plants, but there are also mixtures suitable for certain types on sale. Preference should be given to trusted manufacturers.

You need to choose a pot that will be slightly larger in volume than the previous one.– transplanting into a large one can cause it to stop growing. But it should not be too tight, which also negatively affects the condition of the plant. This may happen, as a result of which growth will slow down, the leaves will slowly begin to turn yellow and fall off. Subsequently, he will simply disappear.

When choosing a container, you should rely on personal preference. A clay pot is environmentally friendly, moisture evaporates well in it, but the price is not entirely economical. But the plastic ones are very light, they attract with their price and variety, they can also be hung.

It will be necessary not only to choose the size of the pot, but also to choose the correct soil composition depending on the classification of the plant. And try to make sure that the plant takes root well in its new home.

When is it better not to transplant?

Most house flowers feel great in their pots, which, at first glance, may seem too small for this plant to a novice lover. It would be a mistake to start replanting when the flower is not too small for its old pot.

In order for the replanting to be painless for the plants, you can use a special calendar, which is compiled experienced growers. They indicate favorable days for transplantation. Flowers also have unfavorable days.

Whether or not to focus on the lunar calendar is everyone’s choice. But the fact that the moon directly influences the growth and development of plants is a recognized fact.

General transplant rules

To carefully pull the plant out of the pot without damaging it, you must first water it thoroughly, let it settle a little, and then carefully free the root ball from the ground. You can use a stick or knife, it is important not to touch the spine.

When you cannot free the root, you need to gently knock on the walls and bottom of the pot. In extreme situations, the pottery is broken and the plastic is cut.

You need to add fresh soil directly to the pot. It is necessary to lay drainage at the bottom to drain water after watering. It allows you to smooth out small miscalculations during overflow. Drainage can be expanded clay, pieces of brick or shards. Many flowers experience stress after transplantation, but in general they tolerate this procedure normally.

There are 3 types of transplantation:

• Complete transplantation. When it is necessary to replace all the soil, it is imperative to clear the root of the old soil.
• Partial transplantation. With this type of replanting, the roots are not disturbed; the soil around the roots is replaced.
• Replacing the top layer. If the flower was originally in a large pot, then replanting should not be carried out; in this case, the top (old) layer of soil should be replaced every spring. This type of transplant is suitable when necessary old layer replace the earth with a new one.

Care after transplant

After the flower has been transplanted, it must be placed away from direct sun rays. Watering should be done infrequently, during this period young roots begin to form. Even with the most careful transplantation, the roots are damaged, and excessive watering can lead to rotting of the root system. You can switch to regular watering only when the first young shoots begin to appear.

Adviсe:

• The transplant must be done on time; roots, deprived of their usual environment, can quickly dry out and be injured.
• Transplanted flowers must be watered; in rare cases, this should not be done when the roots have rotted.
• It is not recommended to feed plants immediately after transplantation.
• You should prepare in advance all the essentials that you may need - a pot, drainage, soil, water for irrigation.
• The workplace must be covered with film or newspaper.
• If the roots sparsely entwine the earthen lump, this plant does not need to be replanted.
• If the plant has rotten roots, then they must be removed by sprinkling the end with crushed charcoal. This will prevent possible rotting.

By following these simple tips when replanting indoor flowers, you can extend their life. The acquired knowledge will help you create a beautiful indoor garden or decorate your country estate. By creating the space around you that is bright and filled with positivity, you will always be in a great mood and admire the beauty of your favorite plants.

In most cases, transplantation is performed in the spring.

Repotting indoor plants– this is one of the mandatory procedures that must be performed as part of their care. Not everyone houseplants need such a procedure. But, most of them need to be replanted every 2-3 years without fail.

Extremely important perform the transplant correctly, because, despite its apparent simplicity, you can do everything wrong and greatly harm the plant, even provoke its death. That is why Plants must be replanted in compliance with all rules.

Favorable days for replanting indoor flowers

To indoor plants actively grew and bloomed after transplantation, you need to choose a suitable day for this. It has long been noted that certain days and months are most favorable for performing this procedure. And there are also days when replanting can lead to the death of the plant. Exists special calendar. This is a lunar calendar, and it is compiled by professional astrologers every year. Therefore, when planning to carry out the procedure of planting or replanting a houseplant, you must first become familiar with the most favorable days for these purposes.

Buy these calendars are available in flower shops, or just find it on the Internet, which is much faster.

In most cases transplantation is carried out in the spring, because this is the most favorable period for these purposes. At this time, plants awaken from hibernation, a state of rest, when young leaves begin to appear on them. You can also replant plants autumn Yu. This period is also considered favorable for such a procedure.

Replanting indoor plants according to the lunar calendar

Lunar calendars must be read very carefully. And this should be the current calendar for the current year, not the old one. After all, those days that were favorable last year may be the opposite this year. In addition, astrologers, when compiling such calendars, indicate for which types of plants a particular day is favorable. These could be, for example, tuberous, bulbous, climbing plants, etc. After all, a day favorable for replanting one type of plant may be unfavorable for another species.

It is usually not advisable to replant plants during a new moon.. During this period it is better to water it abundantly. You can remove dried branches, etc. The best phase when replanting is allowed is the waxing moon. The fact is that during this period useful material circulate actively in the plant in its above-ground parts. The zodiac factor is also important. The accelerated growth of the plant is promoted by signs such as Scorpio, Taurus, Libra, Pisces and Cancer. To avoid confusion and mistakes, it is better to use a fresh and up-to-date calendar. It will indicate the most favorable days for replanting indoor plants and days when it is better not to touch them at all.

How to properly replant indoor flowers - technology and tips

In order to replanting a houseplant was successful, it is important to choose correctly not only a favorable day for this, but also when this procedure will be performed. It is also necessary to choose the right soil type, pot size, transplant technology,irrigation intensity, the place where the plant will be placed, etc.. After the indoor plant is replanted, it is watered several times, and the leaves are also sprayed with water.
Before replanting a plant at all, you need to make sure that this is exactly what is required. How to determine this? There are several signs that indicate the plant is cramped in its current pot. For example, if the greenery in Lately there was so much that the soil was no longer visible. In addition, sometimes the root system can grow and can be seen through the soil. You need to turn the pot over and take out the plant along with the earthen lump. If the roots have entwined all the available soil, this is a clear sign when a transplant is required.
If the plant is growing slowly, there is no point in replanting it in a large pot. The size of the pot should not greatly exceed the size of the previous one. If the plant is growing rapidly and the root is large, the pot size should be appropriate. It is very important to consider the type of root system so that it has room to grow. But there is no need to go overboard with the size of the pot, because in some cases it is the root system that will actively grow and the plant itself may grow, but not bloom. Or just a plant in a large pot will look ridiculous.
It is necessary to choose the right soil so that it suits the plant. But how to define it? Information can be found on the Internet. And even easier, just go to flower shop and ask the seller for soil intended for a specific type of plant. It is better to purchase soil that is exactly suitable for certain types of flowers. Universal primers, and there are such ones too, it’s better to avoid them, because they are not suitable for all plants.

As for transplantation technologies, there are few of them.

• First way involves replanting only the plant, completely clearing its root system of soil.
• Second way- This is a transfer when the root is removed from the pot along with a lump of earth.
• Third way- it's just replacing the top layer of soil. In the latter case, the plant is not transplanted into another pot. Just filmed upper layer earth, and in its place falls asleep new soil maybe even fertilizer.

Replanting indoor flowers in autumn (September, October)

Autumn is also considered a fairly favorable period for replanting indoor plants.. Most transplantation is carried out in September and October, when active growth stops, as well as flowering. All the same, it is better to do a transplant in the fall if there is an urgent need for it. For example, if the root system has entwined the entire soil, if the plant is in a temporary transport pot, etc. But transshipment can be done in the fall, as well as at any other time of the year. In the fall, replanting should be done as quickly as possible, without prolonging this process for a long time, so that the roots of the plant do not dry out. As well as in the spring, a transplant in the fall must be performed taking into account the data lunar calendar by choosing the most favorable day for this.

Indoor plants and house flowers are the decorations of any home.

But creating your own small botanical garden requires a lot of effort. To make flowers pleasing to the eye, it is necessary not only to create a comfortable environment, but also to plant and replant the plants correctly. An important role is played by the choice of time for transplantation.

In this article we will look at how the lunar calendar helps you choose a good day.

Transplantation of indoor plants according to the lunar calendar 2017

Even in ancient times, the enormous impact of our planet’s satellite on all processes occurring on Earth was noted. Of course, such an aspect as crop production was no exception. The moon, revolving around the Earth, also moves around the sun. This is the same lunar cycle. Moving around the circumference of the Earth, the Moon takes a certain position relative to the sun. In other words, it goes through certain lunar phases.

It was noticed that the position of the Moon has an impact on both the growth rate and the flowering of a particular plant. Based on observations of lunar movement, the so-called lunar calendar was created. The lunar cycle lasts one month. The following types of lunar phases are distinguished: new moon, then waxing moon, then full moon and, finally, waning moon.

Since the lunar calendar does not coincide with the one we are used to solar calendar, every year the same lunar phase occurs on different days of the month. This, of course, creates certain difficulties in determining what position the Moon is in now. As a basis, we can use an ancient sign that our grandparents used. If you can make the letter P from a similar-looking moon horn, then it is a waxing moon. If the month looks more like the letter C, it is a waning or aging lunar phase.

However, for such observations, of course, we must count on cloudless, clear weather. If we are unlucky with observations about the Earth’s satellite due to clouds, there are enough resources on the Internet to accurately determine the current lunar phase.

What causes the influence of the moon on plant transplantation and growth? When viewed globally, not only the ebb and flow of the world's oceans depend on the Moon, but also the movement of all liquids on earth. And plants, like any living organism, contain water. During the first lunar phase, that is, two weeks from the moment of the new moon, the water level gradually rises. In all plants during this period, what is called ascending sap flow occurs, that is, the movement of liquid from the roots of the plant to the foliage. Of course, during this period the plant gains strength and rapid growth occurs. The maximum of this growth is achieved during the full moon.

Let's take a closer look at each lunar phase.

• The new moon lasts approximately one and a half days. The moon is practically invisible. The gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun add up together, due to which the concentration of plant juices is in the root part and at the base of the plant trunk. Since all the juices are concentrated in the roots, it is during this period that you can do whatever you want with the leaves and stems of the plant. But replanting should be avoided, as the roots may be damaged.
• Waxing Crescent. During this period, the roots are less vulnerable and do not react so strongly to replanting. The juices of the plant begin to move from the root system up the stem, due to which the development of the above-ground part of the plant begins. During this period, water and nutrition are necessary. You can replant the plant, as it is subject to rapid development and will quickly recover from all traumatic procedures.

The full moon lasts from a day to a day and a half. The moon looks like a disk. The concentration of all the forces and energy of the plant is in the above-ground part. But the roots undergo a test associated with a lack of energy in them. During this period, the plant needs abundant watering. Root viability is reduced.

And finally, the last phase of the Moon is waning. By decreasing the gravitational pull of the Moon, the increasing force of Earth's gravity creates high humidity soil. Energy and juices move from the leaves to the roots. The rest period begins. It is necessary to reduce the frequency of watering.

Lunar calendar for replanting indoor plants: January 2017

Winter is the most difficult season. Dry air, elevated temperatures, drafts and lack of light are dangers to plant health in winter. To avoid them, you must follow the following rules:

1. Hydration. It is necessary to spray both the leaves of the plant and the space around the flower with water. For example, if your flower is on a windowsill, spray water on the surface of the windowsill around the pot. By doing so, you will not only increase air humidity, but also reduce the risk of specific types of pests.
2. Draft. Ventilation of the room is necessary for both human health and the plant. But just like a person, a plant should not be near the window while it is open. Move the pot to another place, and after airing, return it back.
3. Lighting. During the winter months there is very little sunlight. If you do not have special fluorescent lamps, place the pot closer to the window. In cold weather, a special translucent film is stretched between the window and the plant. In a poorly heated room, remove the pot at night and put it back in the morning.

• Good days from 1 to 11, as well as at the end of the month from January 28 to 31.
• From January 13 to January 27 are considered unsuitable days for replanting, only watering and fertilizing. On January 12, it is better to leave the plant completely alone.

Home flowers: replanting according to the lunar calendar 2017

Although transplanting is not the fastest, and, most importantly, enjoyable activity, it must be done regularly. Then your plant will always delight you not only with healthy and strong leaves, but also with bright flowers.

Usually transplanted for several reasons. Firstly, to supply the roots with the necessary oxygen. Secondly, not only the above-ground part of the plant grows over time, but also the rhizomes. Therefore, to ensure healthy growth of the flower, it must be replanted in a larger pot as needed.

It is impossible to say the exact time when indoor flowers should be replanted. It depends on many factors. For example, if a flower is young, it grows quite quickly, therefore, after a year it needs to be replanted. Since it develops and grows its root system throughout the year, it will need a larger pot.

If the plants are already old, frequent transplantation on the contrary, it can harm the flower. There is no need to disturb them for no apparent reason.

The optimal period for transplantation is spring, namely the first two months. Behind spring period the flower will get used to and adapt to the soil, and in the summer it will strengthen its root system and begin to grow. You should not replant indoor flowers in winter. Due to cold weather and lack of sufficient sunlight, metabolic processes slow down, and the flower may not tolerate stress. In addition, if the plant blooms, it is strictly forbidden to replant it. Although there are exceptions to the rules, for example the orchid or, as it is also called, phalaenopsis.

Transplanting orchids according to the lunar calendar 2017

Phalaenopsis or orchid is one of the most beautiful and popular houseplants. Many designers use it as one of the interior decorations. And it’s not easy. Thanks to a large number varieties and colors, an orchid can be not only ordinary decoration, but also one of the attributes of the interior. In addition, the flowering period at proper care, reaches 10 months. An orchid can safely be called the pride of a gardener. The orchid has an interesting character. She is not demanding in everyday life. It is not necessary to place it exactly on the windowsill. If the room is bright enough and well ventilated, the pot with the plant can be placed in the center of the room. The only thing that an orchid does not like is direct sunlight. Better diffused light.

And the orchid needs to be replanted with enviable regularity. Since the roots grow quickly, the tree bark or wood soil is depleted.

The orchid must be replanted in the following cases: aerial roots begin to form, yellow spots appear on the leaves and the orchid does not bloom for 3 months.

Unlike other flowers, an orchid can be replanted when it blooms. Replanting will not affect the future color of the plant in any way. But first you need to cut off all flower stalks by about 2 cm.

For transplantation, select the spring month. But if it is absolutely necessary to do this in winter or in any other month, you must definitely check the lunar calendar and choose one of the favorable days.

Lunar calendar for violet transplantation 2017

Homemade violet is a decoration for any home. It takes up little space, but is not inferior in beauty to other flowering house plants.

Violet is a completely undemanding flower. It is not demanding of light, does not need constant enrichment with organic substances, and adapts well to the temperature in the room. But for the violet to please with its beautiful flowers, she needs a competent transplant.

There are several factors by which you can determine the need for a transplant: this white coating on the ground and a lump of earth tightly entwined with roots. These signs indicate that there is a lack of air permeability of the soil and the presence of excess minerals in it. These troubles can lead to poor violet growth and plant death.

A violet, unlike an orchid, cannot be replanted during the flowering period. Flowering plant points to the fact that he is comfortable in these polka dots. Therefore, to avoid harm, wait until the violet blooms.

A blooming violet can only be transplanted if it needs to be saved urgently. To do this, moisten the soil ball and use special method which is called transshipment.

Violets can be transplanted in any month. Although in winter, due to lack of sunlight, the plant may have problems with adaptation. The violet, like other indoor plants, takes root best in the spring. To choose the most favorable day, you should refer to the lunar calendar.

Let's sum it up

Of course, if necessary, a houseplant can be replanted in any month and in any season. But if there is no emergency, such as the death of a plant, it is better to wait until spring and transplant flowers according to the lunar calendar. After transplanting any indoor plant, it should be provided with complete comfort, namely the absence of drafts, access to sunlight and high air humidity.

Flower grower's lunar calendar 2018 - indoor plants and flowers, sowing flowers for seedlings.

The table of the lunar calendar given on this page is a thematic selection from the universal , made for the convenience of those who grow ornamental plants and flowers, as in room conditions, and in the flower garden at the dacha.

February snow smells like spring.

In February, it's time to sow seeds of flower annuals, such as petunias, for seedlings. different varieties. The sooner you sow them, the sooner they will bloom. The busy time is coming for purchasing seeds, preparing the soil for seedlings and containers for planting them. At the same time, you still need to carefully monitor and care for indoor plants that are in winter depression (possibly hibernation), monitor the soil moisture (waterlogging it at this time is no less dangerous than drying it out).

About watering plants. In winter, it is necessary to carry out moderate, infrequent watering of indoor plants and flowers, avoiding waterlogging of the soil substrate, since with low plant activity, this will lead to stagnation of water in the lower part of the planting container and rotting of the roots. It is worth resorting more often to the so-called “dry watering” - loosening the surface crust of the soil, which destroys the capillaries that, on the one hand, draw moisture from the soil, and on the other, prevent air from penetrating there.

ATTENTION! Our gardener's lunar calendar is kept by Moscow time. (The calendar can be used throughout Russia, taking into account the difference between Moscow and local time *)

It is better to care for flowers on certain days. Many indoor plant lovers grow them at random, especially beginner gardeners. And they face the problem of insufficient growth, poor survival rate after transplantation - up to the death of plants.

Meanwhile, most problems can be easily avoided if you approach the matter correctly. You can get all the necessary information about the technology of replanting indoor plants in the calendar for gardeners. It indicates the time favorable for activities such as watering, fertilizing and changing soil. Flowers transplanted these days easily take root and grow actively.

Techniques for proper transplantation

Replanting an indoor flower is required when the leaves wither, the soil becomes raised, and flowering disappears. Most often, the soil needs to be replaced. The new pot should be larger than the previous one by about 4 cm.

To remove the flower, carefully moisten the soil and carefully remove the plant along with the soil. Place drainage in a layer of about 1 cm at the bottom of the new pot. If the container is large, the thickness of the layer can reach up to 5 cm. Pour soil on top in the form of a mound and strengthen the plant.

About the most favorable days for replanting indoor plants

You cannot place the flower in the sun or fertilize it immediately after the procedure. Transplantation should be performed in the absence of flowering, taking into account a certain time of year. The most suitable periods for this procedure are March-April and September-October. It should not be forgotten that any of the plants has individual characteristics, can bloom and grow actively at completely different times.

The best time to change the soil is when the sap is moving towards the stem and leaves. Plants with reduced elasticity of the root system take root in new soil. When transplanted, they are less susceptible to breakage and other negative effects.

Determining the optimal timing

It is recommended to change the soil of the flower during the waxing phase of the moon. You can determine it by looking at a special lunar calendar. Experts recommend changing the soil at specific periods. These are the spring months - March and May, the summer months - July and August, the whole autumn without restrictions (on favorable days), and the winter months - December.

These tips are based on years of research. It is believed that on the mentioned dates the change of habitat occurs less painfully, and the negative effects are little perceived by plants.

What is the lunar calendar for replanting indoor plants

It is compiled by research specialists in order to simplify the task of caring for representatives of the plant kingdom. The lunar calendar contains information on the topic of loosening, watering and other care. There are detailed days when the flower’s habitat should not be changed.

It is compiled according to the lunar phases. If you follow these recommendations when replanting indoor plants according to the lunar calendar, your flower will not have problems getting used to the new pot. It will begin to grow actively. There are also days in the calendar when any manipulations with plants are highly discouraged. The risk of damage during transplantation for a flower is quite high, and to avoid it you should listen to the advice of specialists.

Below we provide a lunar calendar for indoor plants and flowers for 2017.

Moon phases and our flowers

The state of the moon is considered a serious factor affecting the process of growing flowers. The stem actively lengthens and feeds on sap during the growth phase. When the celestial satellite is in the full moon phase, changing the habitat of the flower should be avoided. This is because the root system is currently actively feeding.

On the days of lunar eclipses, nature provides moments of rest and accumulation of strength. All living things are slowly reborn, and therefore working with the earth during this period is not recommended. It is precisely this data that astrologers rely on when compiling a lunar calendar for replanting indoor plants.

About zodiac signs

When caring for plants, it is recommended to take into account which zodiac sign the moon is in at one time or another. Favorable signs include Scorpio, Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn and Pisces. When the moon is “visiting” Leo or Aquarius, working with the earth is not recommended. All other signs, according to astrologers, do not actively influence flowers.

All of the above is quite understandable with scientific point vision. After all, the position of the moon affects the state of the water, sea tides and tides. The nature of our entire planet, along with the process of vegetation growth, largely depends on the lunar phases.

How does this happen

Those dates of the lunar calendar that are indicated as favorable days for replanting indoor plants coincide with the period when the juice moves to the stem and leaves, that is, to the top of the flower. At the same time, the root system experiences a decrease in turgor and slight dehydration of cells, as a result of which they become less fragile. That is why replanting under these conditions is tolerated as easily as possible, as is the process of taking root in the new soil. Then you can successfully propagate flowers by cuttings, using the most favorable days for replanting indoor flowers.

The above coincides with the waxing phase of the moon. When it decreases, the opposite happens - the roots are filled with moisture. IN given time they should not be disturbed. Thus, a flourishing and healthy appearance indoor garden it is much easier to achieve by consulting the recommendations of the lunar calendar.

In emergency situations

We do not consider cases where an emergency transplant procedure may be required. Pests may suddenly appear, pots sometimes break, and stems break. If it is necessary to urgently save a flower, of course, they no longer pay attention to the schedule. A similar procedure is recommended outside of the plan in case of crushing and yellowing of leaves, long absence flowering.

If the plant has bloomed, it is not advisable to replant it even on one of the favorable days for replanting indoor flowers. There is a very high probability that the green pet will become ill for a long time as a result, and it will be very difficult to cure him.

What to do at other times

There are also unfavorable days for transplanting and planting plants, as well as relatively neutral ones. This time can be filled with procedures of a less radical nature. We are talking about fertilizing, loosening, watering, and treating pests. But on those dates that are indicated in the calendar as completely unfavorable, it is better to leave the flowers completely alone. No type of care at this time will benefit the plant.

The most unsuitable days for transplantation are those when there are lunar and solar eclipses (including partial ones). The vulnerability of flowers at this time is increased, and even the most minor injury can destroy the plant.

Why do you need regular transplantation?

There may be several reasons for this:

1. Overgrown roots no longer fit in the usual container. The earth begins to rise, making watering difficult.

2. Due to hard water, salts accumulate in the soil, making it difficult for the flower to feed.

3. The soil is depleted, its organic component decomposes. As a result, fertilizing does not give the desired effect.

4. Due to soil compaction, oxygen starvation of the roots occurs.

The function of indoor plants is not only decorative. They can significantly improve the microclimate of a living space by humidifying and air conditioning, as well as neutralizing positively charged ions emitted household appliances. Many types of flowers save owners from harmful secretions finishing and furniture materials by absorbing toxins.

Even in the absence of strict adherence to the requirements of the lunar calendar, the plant will tolerate transplantation work better when it is done in the spring, in warm season. It is then that they determine permanent place residence for rooted cuttings. If for some reason you decide to have an “operation” in the fall, careful observance of favorable days for replanting indoor plants is even more important.

Using this approach, you will speed up the growth of your favorite variety and get a lot of little “babies”. Compiling a lunar calendar on your own is a rather difficult task. Ordinary amateur flower growers, as a rule, cannot do it. After all, professional astrologers take into account a large number of different factors in their work: from lunar days and months before the position of the sun and moon in certain zodiac signs.

Flowers in spring and winter

All work with house plants is resumed, as a rule, in April - due to warming and increasing daylight hours. In the last month of spring, juices actively circulate in flowers, metabolic processes (respiration, photosynthesis) accelerate, and greenery begins to grow intensively. Such days are good for rejuvenating overgrown bushes and moving to a new place.

Winter replanting is not recommended. This is due to the fact that during the cold season a quiet period begins and any process in the living organism of a flower tends to slow down. To avoid harm, gardeners try not to touch plants in winter.

By following these simple recommendations regarding favorable days for replanting indoor plants and carefully adhering to the lunar calendar, you will be able to surround your green pets true love and care. And then your efforts will pay off handsomely!
