# I need some opinions. Last week I was late to watering my rosemary…

_Posted by Eb0728 on 2025-01-06_

I need some opinions. Last week I was late to watering my rosemary here, normally it perks right back up after watering and misting but it didn’t this time so I figured maybe I was way too late. Then, I checked the bottom and saw some roots peeking out and wondered if it was actually getting pot bound? It’s a few months too early to repot according to Planta. Should I just keep up with the watering/misting schedule and hold off on repotting or would it be better to repot sooner rather than later?

Much appreciated 💚

I also want to add that I have a light that comes on before noon and runs for 6 hours to help make up for it getting dark at 4

is it winter, idk how it works inside but my lavender and rosemary outside shrivel and turn grey in winter

I bring them inside because it’s way too cold up here in New England during winter. The only difference in care is less frequent watering and no fertilizer but it’s also my first year having this plant so idk what to expect. Hopefully if it’s just like yours it’ll perk back up in spring?

Unless it was a ton of roots, or you were seeing severe yellowing, you should be fine to wait on repot. You may try lukewarm water next time you water
