I've been reading the topic on houseplant soils -- thanks to Al for all the great info -- and I'm ready to start "converting" my houseplants. I've always just dumped the plant out of one pot and put it in the next, maybe doing a little root-teasing and of course adding additional soil. But I've never actually "changed" the soil before. How might I do this? Do I bang all the soil out of the root ball? How careful do I need to be? If I do get a bunch of old soil out of the root ball, how do I get new soil mixed in there? Are these dumb questions?
