I recently bought this sweet pea bush and made the mistake of using a pot with no drainage holes. The leaves have been yellowing and wilting. Yesterday, I changed pots to one with drainage holes and added new soil. Do I need to water it after repotting or let it be for a few days? Wondering if there is anything else I can do to get it back on the right track

How long was it in the original pot for? And I’d water if it’s completely dry

About 10 days or so. Thank you!

i always water thoroughly after repotting to settle the soil, but i also always repot when the plant needs water so i don’t have to worry about overwatering
