Moisturize and nourish the roots before decanting with these natural ingredients.

If you have just purchased a plant or have had one for a long time, you  probably need to repot it : that is, move it to a  more suitable container to ensure that its  roots  can grow unhindered.

Decanting can be a delicate moment for the plant itself, as it can suffer a shock, for this reason you can proceed by  hydrating the roots so that they absorb water and  nutrients  .

Let’s see how to do it right.

Necessary

  • 2 small red onions
  • Container
  • Water
  • Bucket
  • 2 pieces of aloe vera

Procedure

  1. First, free the seedling from its original pot.
  2. Cut the onion into small pieces and place it in a container with 600 ml of water.
  3. Also add the aloe vera and squeeze it with your fingers to get the gel inside.
  4. Pour the solution into a bucket or bowl and dilute with 2 liters of water.
  5. Place the plant inside, making sure the roots are completely submerged.
  6. Leave it on for an hour.
  7. Now place the plant in the new pot with your preferred soil.
