Hello there,
Yes if it is a neutral compost mix........Happy Potting
Yes you can. Just keep in mind if they are different soil like cactus or sandy soil use the proper one for replanting. This aides in moisture and heath of your plant.
Get an all purpose potting soil unless it is cactus or a succulent. You can add sand and perlite and stir in to make the soil airier.
Yes!
yes.
Maria....Yes I do it all the time.
Yes, as long as the potting soil is fresh.
You sure can!
If your plant is healthy it can be reused. Very often with transferring to bigger pots additional potting soiI may be required.
Thank you everyone for all your responses. Really appreciate it!!! Maria
You might need more potting soil when repotting as the pot will require more soil
Hi Maria, you certainly can, it will help your plants to acclimatize to the outdoors
It sounds like you are moving plants? If you are, always try to dig up soil along with the plant. Try to not disturb the roots at all, just dig a big shovelful of dirt along with roots. Then transplant and water really well.
