Hi! Today I am repotting my new plant because the pot they gave me is really bad, and the plant is pretty sick. Any recommendations on making sure I repot it safely and properly?

make sure your pot has drainage holes or is in a regular plastic pot sitting in a pit without drainage

That’s already why I’m repotting it! Any advice on repotting?
