I do, whenever I feel like it, lol.

Love it! That’s kinda like me.

Same! I’ve repotted a couple already this week 😆

It depends on the plant—example: my plant store recommended repotting my pothos every spring and my fiddle leaf fig every few YEARS

### Phil comentó el 2025-11-07

No way. I repot as they need it. I have about 170 plants. About the time I would finish autumn, I would need to start spring repot.

How do you ever go on vacation?!

Well I was gone for a week, about a month ago. Wife said she had it under control. She did okay but a few tropicals were in dire need of water. Leaving again for over a week. Daughter will be plant sitter. If I lose some, no big deal. I have too many.

I repot on an as-needed basis. I rarely refresh the big outdoor pots. Too heavy. I just add manure to the topsoil to refresh and fertilize in warm months. They have lived for many years like this. 🪴🍀

I repot as needed but I like doing it around the inbetween seasons. I’m not sure if repotting a plant before the cold months will hurt/shock the plant at all. It’s never happened to me before but every plant is different! Just pay attention to what your plants are telling you!

I repot as needed. Most of my plants can go 2-4 years between repottings. I repot most things shortly after buying them, and then only repot if they've outgrown their current one or need a soil refresh. For my outdoor bonsai, i always repot in spring, and each plant gets that about every other year. For indoor plants i wait until flowers are done and repot when new growth is coming in
