# I need to repot my monstera because I’m starting to see signs of it…

_Posted by PlantHoarder on 2023-05-11_

I need to repot my monstera because I’m starting to see signs of it being root bound. The pot has a width of 9” and a height of 5”  
How big should the new pot be?  
I don’t want to risk root rot.

I’d move up to a 12 or 15 inch pot!
