they actually aren't as "fragile" as people say they are. I repotted my Cephs for the first time a few months back and only 2 of my divisions had "issues" for like 2 days. the rest just kept on like nothing happened lol...

When all the trees have been cut down,
all the animals are hunted,
all the waters are polluted,
and all the air is unsafe to breathe,
only then will you discover you cannot eat money

I have a mature plant in LFSM that I re poted with no issues but I also have 2 smaller immature plants in peat/sand that I am hesitant to repot because the root ball will be disturbed much more. I am not as confident as you yet!
