I'm only a beginner when it comes to growing and I believe I may have been doing a few things wrong.

I could go into all the details, but that would just be unnecessary and annoying so I will make this simple by getting straight to the point.

What I need to know, if anyone could care to help, is how to remove my sapling to another medium or a different type of soil without destroying the root system and killing my baby.

HELP, HELP!

How big is the plant?

If its a seedling then IDK. But its its somewhat mature, then I would look into root pruning like they do with bonsai mothers. You can't repot it? Why do you need to remove it? Maybe more details and I could be of more assistance.

It will make it. Take out of pot and gently knock all the soil off.... GENTLY ! Repot with the proper mix and enjoy.No problem. Its only a weed it will live if done properly.

It is not only a weed, but yes the plants r pretty resilient. Just be careful and it will be fine. I like to wait for it to get a little dry when i transplant then water in good
