    Re - potting

    The soil that im using it has a ph scale level to high (13).

    I bought a soil it a ph scale level 6-7 and i want to take that bad soil all out and put the plant in the new soil...

    It´s possible? ill the plant die?

    or it´s better to clean the soil? If so, can you tell me what natural substance can i use and the amounts and mixtures.

    Just get some pH adjuster or something and measure the pH and if it's low put it in the soil and transplant that plant in the new soil and water with water that isnt too acidic or alkaline and see if the pH balances out.

    Btw I dont feel like looking for home made supplies that you could add to your soil to lower the pH just try Google instead .

    Re - potting

    that is pretty damned hot dirt ya got there and it'd be best to lose it. don't clean the roots tho...keep the rootball in one piece as much as possible and place it in a new container with your new soil and hope for the best. i'd be planting more seeds tho just in case...

    after getting your new pot ready for the plant, add a cup or so of your super-thrive solution to the bottom of the hole, place the plant into the hole then cover with more new soil...then pour a couple more cups of your super-thrive solution and all should be well...if the plant survives that 13 ph soil that is...

    I moved the plant into the new soil in a pot with 15 centimeters high by 15 centimeters of diameter...
    I aplied a organic rooting powder into the soil to fortify the plant and put around half liter of water and in the end moved the pot into a Fluorescent light... its this ok???
    2 hours later and the plant started to wither... can I do anything else to revitalize the plant???
