A general rule of thumb is that you must repot your Kalanchoe Succulent every two years. This way you will provide your plants a new and fresh growth medium for better growth. Once a Kalanchoe spends 2 years of its life in the same container, transfer it into a new container containing fresh potting mix.
When should I repot my kalanchoe?
Planting and repotting
- You may repot your kalanchoe just after purchasing it if you've purchased it while it wasn't flowering.
- After that, repotting on an annual basis in fall after the blooming should help promote sprouting of new leaves at the end of winter.
How do you repot a kalanchoe succulent?
Fill the bottom of the larger container with 2 inches of gravel for drainage. Add enough potting soil to fill the container approximately halfway. Remove the kalanchoe plant from its current container, and transfer it to the larger container. Situate the plant so the crown is just below the top of the container.
