Hi everyone, I wanted some advice about my tradescantia nanouk.  
I repotted her in May as she had outgrown her pot. Now two months later, her roots have started to come out the drainage holes in her pot and she is huge. She just keeps growing which is amazing!

But, do I need to repot again or leave her alone as she’s doing really well?  
I don’t want to make a mistake repotting and risking transplant shock.

Thank you!

I would just leave it alone let her keep growing and when the roots start to come out the drainage holes really bad thats when I would repot her

You should take off the pot to look at the roots. Repot if it looks like the roots are overtaking the soil. Roots coming out the pot may not indicate over grown roots. It could be roots reaching for moisture under the pot.
