When should I move it to a bigger pot?

I’ve waited for spring to do that. Is that okay to do that now? What do I need for that? #snapdragon#moving

I would do it sooner, rather than later. There's a few reasons for that: you don't want it to get root bound in the pot, that could cause it to die. Also, with a bigger pot, it will be able to spread out and flourish more, possibly make it grow wider and not taller

@GodsendCatnip I would go ahead and repot it. Just a good draining soil and add perlite to it to help with irrigation. Get a pot that has drainage tho.

Yes, put it in a bigger pot and gradually move to a sunny place.

@SunflowerDaisy How do I make it grow wider and not taller? Should I cut it somehow?

@GodsendCatnip when the flowers start to die off, you can probably cut off the leggy stem and propagate it to have more
