How to use the Base Soil Mix
Using the mix is easy!  start with removing as much of the old soil as possible. Gently squeeze the pot while holding it sideways to loosen up the plant. Run the roots under lukewarm tap water to remove the last pieces and bits.

Also, make sure to remove any dead foliage that may still be on the plant using scissors. Now your plant is ready for its fresh Base soil. Add a small layer of Base mix at the bottom of the pot.

Place the plant in the pot, and slowly add Base soil to the sides to fill it up. Make sure that the point where the roots meet the plant is just buried under the Base soil.

Lightly pat the Base mix down into the pot. Make sure to water the Base mix thoroughly after repotting, as this helps settle the mix and roots down.
