A very good suggestion there Roberta. I recommend that too. The fiddly bit with quincan gravel is when enough roots propagate through the 'matrix' of the pot, then it can sometimes take a while to get the rocks out - while with some other media mix..... just some gentle squeezing dislodges most of the stuff.
