  1. I am new to fairly house plants and repotted some yesterday from my son’s funeral. I realized I used the wrong potting soil, just used outdoor stuff. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Can I repot them in correct soil today or would it be worse to repot them so soon?

    1. Hey marie,
      I think you can do so if the plant is showing any sign of stress, if not then let it be just control the watering situation and it should be good!
      Hoping for a quick recovery for your plants!

  2. If you have to wash and rinse the roots (mold was forming on the bottom roots and top of the soil, plus a history of pests), and repot in an entirely different medium, is it enough to just water enough to settle the soil, or should you give it a hefty drink?

  3. When repotting do u leave the roots loosely in soil or snug them in tightly? I’ve been losing most of my plants and I think it’s cuz I’m putting roots in to snug. Any advice appreciated. Thank you

    1. Great question! When repotting, it’s best to place the roots loosely in the soil rather than packing them in tightly. Gently spread the roots out and fill in around them with soil, pressing lightly to remove air pockets but not compacting it. This allows roots to breathe and grow, helping your plants thrive!
