Hello!

Should I be concerned with this one trying to run out of its pot?! Should I repot and support?

i’ve seen some people cut the stem of their plant to help with this. you can use the leaves on the cut off part to make babies🫶

It looks like it’s stretching towards the light. I would try to give it more light. But you can also behead it \& repot the top you cut off. You can also propagate the leaves left on the potted part \& then more new babies will start growing from the whole stalk piece left over. It’s so cool! Google how to behead a succulent if you need more direction!

I think you need to move it closer to the window Becuase it is stretching for light

I would chop or \& start again :) more light!
