Sure you can. Use well draining soil.

Looks rlly cute in that vase tho tbh 🤭

i know right!! i’ll probably keep it in there but was curious on how the transfer would go

#### Belle replied on 2026-08-06

It shouldn’t be too hard of a transfer! I’d wait till she grows secondary roots off those big chonky roots, a new leaf is also a good sign she’s ready to be potted ( if that is the case wait until the new leaf hardens off then pot her up). The pot should be about the same length as her roots i think I’d start off with a “4 pot once she’s ready.

Lmaoo completely missed the new leaf literally front and center. Don’t mind me.

that’s very helpful thank you!!

I'd wait for her to get roots like this first

If you do transfer to soil, remember to always water since the roots are already “water roots” so constant moisture would be great for it to survive otherwise the plant would start becoming a wee bit frail
