  1. Grab hot beverages (wine or beer will do!)

  2. Prepare a gallon of clean/distilled/filtered water in a bucket

  3. Add 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide and 2 tsp Super Thrive in the bucket and Mix well. OR add any insecticide of your choice and mix well.

  4. Unbox your fresh import immediately upon arrival. (This is a good time for some hot beverages or a glass of wine!)

  5. Remove packaging and the moss that wrapping the roots area

  6. Trim dead leaf/dead roots

  7. Soak fresh imports in the prepared bucket above. Leave it for 5-10 mins (Another hot beverages or another glass of wine time)

  8. Repot in moss/perlite mix, 1-1 equal. Moisten the substrate BUT not soaking wet.

  9. Place your fresh import in an enclosed bin under a medium light. 

  10. Make sure the bin is placed in a warm area

  11. Time to take a nap or attend another plant live session!


** air out the bin at least once a day for 1 min

** leave your fresh import inside the bin for 1-2 weeks, depending on the condition


Please understand,  eventho we packed our plants in great care… it is normal for fresh imports to have yellowing leaf, dead roots, some damage to the leaf or even broken stems.
