I recently took in this satin pothos and she’s thriving! But I’m wondering if she’s getting too big for her pot and should be repotted?

New to the plant mom life!

Thank you!

Check on the roots:) if the plants still popping out leaves and growing don’t repot it. If it’s root bound, struggling, etc then check on the roots, then repot :))

My bet is it’s fine as it looks healthy and full. Checking roots won’t hurt. If it starts losing leaves, maintains the same amount of leaves, or doesn’t start vining all over soon while continuing to grow leaves on the vines, then I’d change light, fertilizer, pot, etc.

I have two of these and I just let them continue to grow up until I see roots growing at the bottom☺️😍

### Vera commented on 2024-05-21

I don’t think so. If you notice that growth is slowing, then you might consider it. But I have a scindapsus in a 6 inch pot that trails 3 feet down to the ground.

Thank you everyone! I’ll leave her be for now. I’m a new plant mama so I appreciate all the advice
