How to replace hosts

It is possible to replace hosts from April to October, throughout all vegetative period. But it is the best of all to do it in the spring – at the beginning of May, and in the fall – since September.

It is required to you

  • - maternal bush hosts;
  • - landing hole;
  • - humus;
  • - shovel;
  • - garden scissors or knife;
  • - mulch (peat or sawdust);
  • - water for watering.

Instruction

1. If you want to move to host on the new place, this place at first needs to be prepared. To dig out hole of week for two before landing, to lay humus on bottom, having mixed it in half with the earth. During change any fertilizing, neither organic, nor mineral, you should not bring.

2. Khosta – plant which at change perfectly shares. Most often division is caused by need as host very quickly expands and occupies the big space. Khosta growing on one place becomes more magnificent and more beautiful every year, but sometimes it expands so that suppresses all nearby plants. In addition, time in 4-5 years the host needs to rejuvenate and divide into new bushes.

3. Before change in two hours the soil near Khosta needs to be humidified. Then the shovel digs round bush on perimeter. You should not dig round too close to roots, but also the long distance is undesirable to recede too as large hosts can be so heavy that it is difficult to make their movement. The dug round bush accurately is taken from the soil and the root system is cleaned from the earth. It is the best of all to make it, having raised host for stem weight and having several times knocked about the earth. Host you should not be afraid of break of roots, very quickly increases new backs

4. If you want to receive a little from one bush, hands or sharp knife separate to host into 3-4 saplings. Though and not to do without it, try that damages of roots were minimum. Further from tops of saplings delete part of sheet weight to reduce moisture evaporation by plant. It will increase its survival. In landing hole by the size of root system of the replaced bush or the separated sapling place plant, bury lower than the level of the soil at 3 centimeters, level roots and fill up with soil.

5. For reproduction hosts it is possible to separate bush into large number of saplings, to one allotment. Leaves which will be removed from plant or will break at change, it is possible to put in water. They form backs, and they can be landed in soil too. At spring change on plant it is necessary to leave young leaves for photosynthesis. After change the plant is necessary is abundant to water that the root system could adapt to new conditions better. Then the earth around bush needs to be zamulchirovat dry peat or other mulching material.
