# Alocasia stingray - The roots have started to get crazy at the bottom…

_Posted by CN on 2025-04-01_

Alocasia stingray - The roots have started to get crazy at the bottom so I am planning to move her to the larger pot. Do you think she could wait a little longer or would you go ahead and repot up to the container in the pic?

I’d just do it to avoid root rot, because now it looks like she’s sitting in water, and that’s a no bueno👎

It’s very hard to have issues from a massive upsize in a pot when you’re using pon i’ve heard.
