Easy to transition plants into water, or from water into soil, the trick is to be gentle with the process. So take the plant out of the pot and pop it into a bucket, soil and all, and top up with water. After a few days drain the water and loose wet soil onto the garden and rinse the rest of the potting soil off all the roots and put the plant into the vase you want to use, and fill, preferably with rain water, but tap will do. If your water is heavily chlorinated, full a container and let it stand for a few days so the chlorine off gases into the air and leaves the water safe for living things. And that's it. Transitioning from water into potting mix is just the reverse process. The trick is to not shock the plant, so the roots have a chance to adjust.
I am a lazy gardener, water culture is perfect for me, because other than evaporation it needs very little attention. Just occasional feeding and topping up. Easy!
