Jade plant
Hey, new to the group so please be nice...
My girlfriend bought me a jade plant as a gift and I would like to repot it. (it probably needs it) I know a bit about plants from having the aquatic types that I raise and used to sell to pet shops, but what I wanted to ask is: Should I do it now while it is somewhat dormant (being winter here) And what would be the best soil mixture to use? ie part sand/part potting soil... Straight mushroom soil... ecetra..... Anyfertilizers to start with? In the aqua stuff we put down a "first layer" that helps feed the roots... Sorry I dont remember the scientific name, but it seems to be a common Jade plant... Thanks in advance |
