AIs are usually quite happy to trade planets. decide which "mixed" systems you'd lik to keep for yourself and select a few that you can afford to lose. Trade planets in your unwanted systems for Phong plants in the systems you want. This is a good way to consolidate after a coloniser race and has the added advantag of gaining you lots of Carbon Dioxide breathing Phong citizens. (only an advantage if you don't breathe CO2 already=-)
