should I replant this guy its a chroma teneke? if so the white pot underneath that I use for him is big enough but does not have drainage holes. If I wanted to use the same pot again how should I proceed.

    Get a new nursery pot with holes… you don’t want to use any kind of pot without drainage if using soil as your substrate

      Those cheaper nursery pots are at local nurseries and online. They sell them by the stack. You can pay a little more and get hard plastic pots in many colors and a clear variety.

    Remove the plastic pot to look at all of the roots to see if it really needs repotting. That single root could just be a root drinking up the excess water in the ceramic pot. Typically, you can cut it off. Then, ensure there is no standing water in the ceramic pot after watering.

      I think it was a root drinking up excess water because I haven’t watered it until today since getting it and there was water sitting at the bottom of the pot

    definitely don’t pot in a pot with no drainage. you can also order some clear nursery pots on Amazon - they aren’t expensive at all! this way you can better keep track of the roots and when to water your plant.
