How to Re-Pot a Plant
Yes, It Has to Be Done

Repotting plants is not hard to do, but it can be a little scary to uproot and move a plant that seems fine where it is. Still, every plant eventually wants and needs a bit more space or just some new, fresh soil. And if your poor plant looks like the plant shown here, it's roots are so pot bound it's not getting any water or nutrients. In this quick video, Gretchen Siegchrist shows us the right way to repot a plant, so that it will continue growing as well, or even better, than before.
