Yes. But to be fair I don’t really know what I’m doing. I just assume when it looks like that, the roots no longer have room to grow and party anymore. So I figure it’s time for an upgrade.

Disclaimer: I could be terribly wrong

Yes a repot would be good! Use a chunky well draining mix to repot. Also that is a 6 inch pot you will want to pot up to an 8 inch or gently cut off some roots at the bottom and repot into the same 6 inch pot

Yes look like the roots would like space now to trail.. good season now to go ahead and repot it.
