Course Overview
Repotting should solve a real container, root, media, or drainage problem. It should not be used as a reflex response to every slow plant or yellow leaf.
This course teaches students when repotting is justified, how to choose the next container, how to protect roots during the move, how to water afterward, and how to monitor recovery.
Safe repotting is conservative. The goal is to preserve root function, avoid oversized wet containers, and give the plant time to stabilize before adding more changes.
Course Outcomes
- Identify root crowding, drainage, and media conditions that justify repotting.
- Choose a container size and drainage setup that match the plant and climate.
- Handle the rootball, planting height, and backfill without suffocating roots.
- Water carefully after repotting and avoid rot after root disturbance.
- Monitor recovery, delay fertilizer until the plant is stable, and judge success from plant response.

Key Takeaway
Repotting should solve a real root-zone problem. Choose the smallest safe change, protect the roots, water carefully, and let recovery stabilize before adding more inputs.
