Hello! I am new to plant life and I’m curious as to when I should rest my plants? I have two pothos and a philodendron. I got them a little over a week ago. Should I change the soil before my next watering or wait?

    When I bring a new plant home I check the bottom of the pots to see if they’re root bound before I decide if it should repot, if the roots are coming out the bottom or starting to then yes repot but it won’t hurt it if you don’t. If I want to repot I try to give it a week 1/2- 2 weeks or so to adjust to your environment, water, sunlight, especially if it’s going from outside to inside. You can repot it it anytime after that or even now if you feel confident that they’re not going thru shock or showing visible signs of distress. I recommend watering with some fertilizer after repotting to help prevent too much shock/stress. Pothos are pretty resilient plants so don’t be discouraged, with a philodendron I would recommend a orchid bark or chunky type of soil; they like that breathing room it gives. Also after repotting, putting them in indirect sunlight or under a grow light will help lessen stress too! I hope this helps good luck!

    Me personally i always repot my plants when i bring them home to prevent any sickness from the soil they came in at the store. it’s completely up to you!! i think there is never really a good time to repot personally 😩
