I have been really procrastinating repotting my monstera… it took my bf and I a good 30 - 40 min to get her out of her pot…. I knew she was rootbound but I didn’t think it was going to be this rootbound 😅 but I mean….. those roots though 😍😍😍

We just repotted ours last weekend as well! It was also very root-bound. With the change in pot and new soil be prepared to see a little guttation this next week.
