# My newest leaf on my Philodendren florida was a bit smaller than the…

My newest leaf on my Philodendren florida was a bit smaller than the previous leaves so I suspected it was root-bound. I pulled it out and indeed it was. I loosened up a bunch of the roots and repotted with chunky mix. I left almost all of the original soil, because I put it in a bit of an oversized pot. I will focus watering more towards the center where the denser soil is and the outer perimeter of chunky soil, which will still get some water, can help wick any excess water away (this is an experiment btw). With the excess size of the pot, if I water the whole pot normally, I risk over watering. I have my finger and a water gauge stick to help get it right.
