Hi Martine,
You can soak it in any clean container you'ld like. I usually put the bark mixture (I make
my own) in the container first, then add the water until it is covered. I let it soak over-
night and then it carefully pour off the water and refill it with fresh water early in the
morning. After a few hours I use it to repot. Some probably don't flush with fresh water
but then again, I like to get rid off the sediment from the overnight soaking.
