Looking for advice on repotting Blc
Default Looking for advice on repotting Blc

I just got this at the local grocery store:

It is a Blc Hawaiian Passion:




From the above photos you can see that the Blc has a lot of mossy covered dark pieces of bark. Is this stuff OK?

I would like to repot it and inspect the roots. I currently have some Better-Gro Phal mix which has western raw fir bark, hardwood charcoal, chunky peat moss, and coarse perlite.

I was thinking of hand picking the driest and larger pieces of bark, charcoal, and perlite (and avoid the peat moss) from my Phal mix and use that. And maybe if there are some rocks in the current Blc pot, I can reuse some of it. So far, all I see is dark pieces of bark though.

Or would i be much better off using some stuff from Repotme? I hope I can do OK with the bark and charcoal and perlite from the Phal mix though as I have already spent a lot on supplies this month.

THanks for any advice.
