I’ve never kept plants before so I wanted to start off with a plant just in a pot before I decide to switch substrates and completely make a planted tank. I was going to start with pothos since it’s supposed to be pretty hardy. I was told Josh’s Frogs is a good place to buy from, but I was wondering since they are sold for reptiles, do I still have to worry about repotting it to get rid of any possible chemicals? It says on the website they are in organic soil.
If so, where is the best place to buy soil from and which kind is safe? I know organic but I don’t know if anything else is dangerous. And anyway to avoid gnats? Everyone I know who keeps plants says they have them and my family would kill me if we had another infestation. Anything else I should know?
And I have tried googling but I figured it would be better to ask since I know some things that are okay for houseplants are not safe to do with a plant in a reptile enclosure.
