Unless your home has large fluctuations or is very cold. Ypu can really repot whenever you want. I repot all year round. I do use Mycorrhizal to help with transplant shock during any season

I have repotted at all times of the year also but typically is recommended to transplant at the beginning of a growing season. This helps the plant recover more quickly.
