    Ramen noodles! Agreed on potting up a size and then stick that aerial root into a cup of water!

    I definitely plan to up pot it right away! It’s in a 4 in, a lady working was there when I took it out to look and she said maybe even go up to an 8in because there’s so many roots.. what do you guys think about that?! Should I go with 6in or 8in? I don’t want to have to repot it too soon but also don’t want it to rot for being too large! Thanks

      if you want to leave the root ball alone, i would go with a 6, but breaking the 'noodles' up a bit, you could probably go with an 8 :)

      Thank you!!! I feel like I might loosen them up a little bit but nothing too much, just encourage them to branch out a bit, so I’ll prob go with the 8 then so they have some room to do so and won’t need repotting too quickly! Thanks!
