My happy little Philodendron named Thistle is growing new leaves every few days! When should I repot to a bigger pot?? She looks like she might be outgrowing this one?

she'll need a new pot when the roots start to circle around the pot! you should be able to slip it off a few days after watering. when you do repot, only go up one size to prevent root rot :)
