Hey. I would like to know if it’s time to repot this prayer plant? I know the rule is to wait til roots are growing thru the bottom but due to it’s size and the pot size I was thinking it should be repotted. Also, it does have a few roots coming thru.

love it, I would repot it now if it’s starting to peek thru ☺️

Yeah it looks like you need to go up a size or 2.

I’m glad that I saw this post of yours today.  
I also have a prayer plant but had no idea when/if to repot it. Now I know some idea of what to look for! ❤️

Well the main thing about what to look for when repotting a plant is to see if the roots are growing through the bottom.  
I was concerned about the size of the pot and the plant getting bigger. But a few roots are growing thru the bottom so I will be repotting it.
