How to choose a suitable indoor flower pot

2021-06-16

When maintaining potted plants indoors, when choosing the right flowerpots, you must not only choose beautiful ones, they are not only for ornamental purposes, but also to make the roots of the plants grow better. Using the right flowerpots will make the plants grow healthier. The viewing will be better.

If you do not choose a suitable Flower Pot, for example, the flower Pot has poor air permeability or drainage, yellow leaves and rotten roots are prone to appear when growing plants, and the plants will definitely not be able to grow well. There are different types of flower Pots, including the materials used, sizes and shapes.

Which kind of flowerpot to choose for growing flowers depends on the plant's preference for water, the requirement for the air permeability of the flowerpot and the size of the plant.

If you cultivate succulents or other drought-tolerant plants, you need to choose some well-drained soil and flower pots, preferably pots, clay pots or purple sand pots.

For some plants that like humid environments, you can choose plastic pots, metal pots or glazed Ceramic Pots.

Before planting plants, it is best to learn more about the growth habits of plants, at least to understand what kind of environment the plants need to be planted like and do they like water? What are the requirements for the air permeability and drainage of the flowerpot and soil?

If you want to choose the right pot for the plant, you must also understand the size of the plant. When maintaining potted plants, the most taboo is to use too large pots to plant smaller plants. If you want to make the plants bloom better and the plants grow better, you must avoid using too large pots to plant them. Flower pots are several sizes larger than plant plants, which can easily lead to too much soil, and plant roots are prone to rot and yellow leaves.

By the way, if you just bought the potted flowers at home, if they still have buds or are blooming, you should avoid changing the pots. Otherwise, not only will the buds fall, but also the leaves will turn yellow and the plants will wither. It takes a period of time for plants to adapt to the new environment. At this time, the roots are damaged and the soil is broken.

Special attention should be paid to the potted plants that have just been bought. Don't change them into large pots. If they can be directly transplanted with soil, they can be replaced in a pot of the same size, and then transplant again after the flowering period. For potted flowers, it is very taboo to change pots during the flowering period. The best time to change pots is to change pots after the spring is warm and before the plants are ready to germinate new buds.
The red pottery pot is made of various clays. Through high-temperature firing, a lot of pores will be formed on the surface of the flower pot during the firing process, so its air permeability and drainage are particularly good. After the Terracotta Pot is soaked with water, the surface of the flower pot will become moist, which is to allow the water to drain out better.

Terracotta Pots are more suitable for growing orchids, succulents, and other plants that require high drainage and air permeability. Terracotta pots also have larger drainage holes at the bottom, which can also be matched with trays.

There are many advantages of terracotta pots. Its color is reddish-brown and can blend well with the surrounding plants. Flower pots come in various sizes, heights, widths, and sizes. The price is slightly more expensive, and some Pottery pots that are expensive and expensive (such as the Emperor Roman terracotta pots).
Ceramic pots look better than terracotta pots. Its air permeability and drainage are not as good as terracotta pots. The interior and surface of the flower pots will be glazed.

The advantage of ceramic basins is that they are better decorated, look more exquisite and atmospheric, and come in various sizes, colors and shapes.

Ceramic pots are more durable than terracotta pots, and are not easy to break. Generally, there is no problem in using them for decades. The soil in the Ceramic Flowerpot will dry more slowly, which is more suitable for plants that prefer the soil to be moist.
There are also disadvantages of ceramic pots. After being filled with soil, the ceramic pots will become extremely heavy. Some ceramic pots with relatively large specifications are more expensive. In addition, if the bottom drainage holes are not large, the pot soil will easily block the drainage holes, resulting in excessive soil moisture and easily rotted plant roots.
