It can be mixed with leaf mold, garden soil and fine sand. It must be disinfected first after preparation.

Pat the pot around the sides, tilt the pot, and then tap the bottom to remove the Monstera from the pot. Remove the old soil attached to the Monstera, keep some soil, trim the roots appropriately, remove old roots, diseased roots, and dead roots, and place them in a well-ventilated place to dry.

4. Planting in a pot: Place particles at the bottom of the new pot, then cover it with a layer of soil, then put the Monstera plant upright, stretch the roots flat, fill it with the remaining soil, and then slowly compact the soil.
