# I recently repoted my satin pothos a few weeks ago and ive notice…

_Posted by Paiges Petals on 2025-07-30_

I recently repoted my satin pothos a few weeks ago and ive notice some pieces aren't uncurling while others are perfectly fine. I removed a lot of roots when repoting because some single strands had huge amounts of roots and i didn't have a big enough pot to compensate for them. Is it safe to repot it again to check the roots t fin out why it won't uncurl? Im also going to stake it will coco coir poles

I wonder if the pot is too big?

This pot is the same size as its old one just a bit deeper. It was super root bound in the other one

It’s might just still be recovering from the trauma to the root system

It is thirsty or just recovering

Just an fyi, but I tried those coco coir poles on several of my plants, including a satin, but none attached to the poles. Even after about six months. I’m switching to moss poles and Treleaf planks.

I would just leave it be for now. It looks healthy enough. If the problems get worse then you could, but I doubt it’s needed. Cutting off roots can be very traumatizing, it might take a while to recover. I planted three satin props back in June and they took about a month to adjust to the soil and resume new growth and that was without any damage to the roots. I would say just give it time. You don’t want to risk further traumatizing the plant
