Snake Plant Re-potting (Sansevieria Cylindrica Starfish)
Рет қаралды 61,980
Күн бұрынMy Sansevieria Cylindrica Starfish was getting so big that it was time to repot my snake plant. I divided it into two and moved them to terra cotta pots.
These are such hardy plants and fast growers too. They do well in low light and are drought tolerant. I got mine at Hirt's Gardens and I'm really happy with it.

As a newbie, the best thing I've ever invested in was a moisture meter. I checked my plant yesterday because I thought it needed watering. It's cool here now in NYC. I checked in 3 places and only 1 of the places said it was a bit moist. I'm going to hold off watering and check again in another week. I've learned to check at least 4 spots before watering if the pot is big.
@carmenwhitehead Жыл бұрын
You're right. I still use a moisture meter before watering, especially large pots. Thanks for watching.

Only watering when the soil is dry, if you are not sure the plant needs water or not, wait a few days to watering again.

I have used coffee filters to the bottom of pots and then added potting soil (or my homemade mix), and without even watering the pot (I decided to replant it again the next day using a different potting mix), literally within 24 hours that coffee filter was getting mildewy. I do not recommend using coffee filters over drainage holes. You WILL have fungal issues in your pot.
