I’m so scared to kill this baby but I want to gift it to my mom. What’s the best way to transfer to soil? Just fully give it soil?

Give it it’s natural soil. Keep it moist for the next month because it’s current living house has been water so it will want to stay moist for 4-8 weeks. Just slowly go back to a normal watering routine between the 4-8 weeks.

you can slowly introduce soil until you get to full soil. You can also put the leafy part of the plant in sandwich bag or clear plastic shower cap (i get a bunch from Amazon for not much money) to keep it moist as it is acclimating to soil.
