I definitely wanna promote growth and she’s doing great in this pot but do we think I should repot her or not yet?

Is the soil drying up super fast? Does it have roots growing out of the bottom? If it ain’t broke, don’t fix….yet.

It seems to be happy where she is!

If the soil is very dense and taking too long to dry out then yes, if not I’d leave it be

I would say no unless you have the problems mentioned above. I usually repot into a similar sized pot/or same pot if the root ball hasn’t grown much (or even down-size sometimes but this is only if the root system is strong) to encourage the plant to put more energy into creating leaves instead of roots!

Also, fertilizer is your best bet to promote growth during the growing season!
