What does REPOT mean in Scrabble?
verb
To move a plant from one pot into another, usually larger, pot.
Gardeners repot a plant when its roots have filled the old container or when fresh soil is needed, easing the root ball out and settling it into a bigger pot with new compost. The practice is common with houseplants, which cannot spread their roots naturally and so depend on repotting to keep growing. Timing matters, since many plants are repotted in spring when they are approaching a new season of growth rather than while dormant. The word applies specifically to changing the container, not simply to watering or feeding a plant.
How REPOT is used
Gardening term; used chiefly of houseplants and container-grown plants that are moved to a new pot.
