Step 5: Add your plant

Positioning your plant properly ensures its roots have the stability and space needed to thrive, while also minimizing transplant shock and promoting healthy root development.

To set up:

Gently remove the plant from its original container.

  • If it's an existing plant at home → loosen and remove some of the old soil.

  • If it's a newly purchased plant → gently untangle the roots, especially if root-bound.

Place the root ball so the top sits about 5–7 cm (2–3 inches) below the rim. Hold the plant steady before filling in the remaining soil.
