My string of pearls has been in this planter container since I got it. But it looks like some roots are starting to poke through… should I repot? Help!

If you want to, it’s truly up to you. I’d go for a small terracotta pot with drainage and pretty shallow too, string of pearls roots are very short and delicate, so don’t want to give them too much room width or depth wise

Yes you should repot. That’s a sign that your plant is outgrowing its current pot

Thank you all!

You should always remove the pot and look at all the roots before deciding to repot. Roots sticking out the bottom could be roots seeking the drained water in the drainage tray.

Nope
