Do you mean acclimate the plant? Or reuse the current moss into the mix?
2개 좋아요I guess I meant acclimate, there’s no way to get the moss off the roots. I went ahead and added my other mix to it, I guess we’ll see how it goes. Fingers crossed!🤞🏻

Moss removes more easily when soaked so it’s super soggy. Any little wads left will rot the roots it surrounds
