Thanks realoldbeachbum! I saw a video where a guy did that, too. I asked *somewhere in here! and someone said either not to or not necessary, so I didn’t.
I was a beach bum! Va. Beach!

I did water it completely a while after repotting.
90% of the roots are hidden by the media now.
I wonder how often I should water it?
Mine had two lowest leaves when I got it, one was yellow. I removed it after a few days. A few weeks later it's opposite lowest leaf turned yellow and I removed it.
Everything has been great ever since. I enjoyed the original flowers and one remained, when I got the bonus branch... 20 buds, at least 10 in bloom now.
Meanwhile, 2 smaller leaves are growing way down low (maybe they were there before? I'll check my pictures

! one kind of in the medium (even still after my repot yesterday).
These remain small and one, both really, one started first, are yellowing (see attached pic).
I read that yellow was too much light; I also read too much water (root rot).
What's happening? What to watch for? What to do?
Since I just repotted, not sure when to water! I did not soak bark... oldbeachbum, if you're reading: soaking first might have an advantage for a beginner (me!) because, hey, I could check the bark dryness to help me know when to water during this crucial time! Idk, I'm just guessing.
seems to be a hearty little guy, I hope he makes it and flourishes!
