Potting is the process of transferring a plant from one container to another, usually to provide it with more space for growth or to refresh its soil. This is commonly done with houseplants, such as pothos or succulents, to ensure they have adequate nutrients and drainage. During potting, it's important to choose the right size pot and use appropriate potting soil. The new container should have drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating, which can lead to root rot. Proper potting helps maintain the health and vitality of the plant, allowing it to thrive in its environment.
