hi guys! if there are roots coming out of the drainage holes in the pot of my plant, does that mean it’s time to repot? i see little roots sticking out of my pilea, i have it in a 6in pot right now which is the one i bought it in. if it is time to repot, any tips on that? i’ve never repotted a plant before
I usually use the roots growing out the bottom of the pot as the plant telling me it’s getting right in their current pot. I would report it one size bigger
