Hi, I'm new to the forums and new to caring for these little guys. I got mine yesterday from the typical store, not a good idea i know. However, it does show some potential of becoming a good plant, lot of it was dead, although, it has quite a few baby sprouts coming in. I will be getting all the soil that is needed for it and yet, i am kind of afraid to repot this soon. It seems like it would need it, I took the plastic container off it, so its just in the little pot it came in.
I have been looking through the forums and have found quite a bit of information. Though, haven't found info on how to care for a plant that is obviously been stressed out. It was in a pet store and didn't seem like it was getting a whole lot of sun. Right now I have it in my greenhouse, its a cloud cover outside, so not much sun today (live in washington).
I want to do the best I can for this little one and help make it become strong. I love all the info here, just wondering if I repot it this early on, will it kill it? Or will the fresh soil and a bit bigger pot help? Eventually I'm going to make a little terrarium for it out of an old fish tank I have lieing around.. For now though, I just want to get it to a healthier stage. A video I watched pretty much said (in its own little way) that what I got doesn't stand a chance because of how stressed it is. I feel it has a chance, just needs some tlc...
