Repotting

Question

I’m ready to repot.  Can I use the container it is already in or should I use a larger one?

Answer

If it is growing bigger than you want to put it in a pot about 2 inches bigger

Answer

You could just refresh the soil, but if it's root bound, you'll want to size up a couple inches.

Answer

@ArdentNapaea you will also need more dirt because you are putting it in a bigger pot

Answer

You have received great advice.  Also keep in mind that these plants do not mind being tight in their pots.

Answer

Yeah I only repot mine once a year, once every couple years depending on which one... They really don't need it often.

Answer

You have your plant in an eight inch pot now which is a fairly big pot. As @sarahsalith has indicated these plants don’t mind being tight in their pots. If it root bound then it probably needs a new pot. You can cut the trails and propagate them. I wind a few of the trails in the pot to give the plant a fuller look. @WickedValkyrie also has good advice.
