Go only two inches bigger and wear gloves, because there sap is toxic and can burn your hands😬

Good to know about the sap!

It surprised me, when reporting, that they are bulbs. Lol. I was like, what the heck? 😅 Very cool.  
This one might need a slightly bigger pot or may not. The one I bought had 4 bulbs shoved in there with big roots, so I split them up into two smaller pots.

Don’t repot until it’s bursting out of this pot.  
You could probably leave it in this spot for the next 1.5 years or more. They like to be snug. This isn’t nearly snug yet.

I’d only repot if the soil is holding too much moisture. But the pot itself in is PLENTY big enough. You could potentially go down a size. If you repot, use a well draining mix similar to what you’d use for Hoyas or snake plants. They like to dry out COMPLETELY before being thoroughly watered. Either way, I’d wait a few weeks before repotting (if needed) so that the plant has time to acclimate
