Just woke up to something green and small poking out of my snake plant pot🙃

It’s a little late in the year to repot but should I begin to consider it?

Personally I wouldn’t repot yet. Snake plants like to be a bit pot bound and yours is happily growing a baby, so I’d leave her alone for now.

Interesting fact about them being pot bound, I’ll make a note :)

Mine is all jammed up with babies (they are hardly recognizable as babies now) after a wild growing season, and I only miiiight consider a repot in the spring — more likely I’ll just make some space in the pot by removing a few props

Leaving the little guys alone seems to be the consensus🙃I’ll take a little look again in 6 months!

I keep leaving mine be until someone tells me differently :)
