Hi
I let my babies get pretty big. Sometimes if Mom leaf die I will re-pot a healthy looking baby. Sometimes if the babies are real big I will separate them and if Mom has a lot of roots , healthy she may even have little babies I may re-pot her down in fresh soil .
I alway use new pots, new solo cups, and fresh soil-less mixture.
All my pot's are bleached even new ones and all my plants wether sold or given away come in new pots :))
Let me see if I can find a picture or some babies still with Mom. They are also easier and stronger if you let them get a good size before taking them away from the Mom leaf !
