# Hi! I was wondering about repotting them. I bought some good…

_Posted by KaliVanity on 2025-09-13_

Hi! I was wondering about repotting them. I bought some good succulent soil and was wondering when/how to repot them. Any advice? I bought these yesterday and today on a whim. Do they grow any bigger? Will they die if I put them in a slightly bigger pot? Any advice is welcome!!!

You can definitely repot them in pots ~2 inches larger. I would give them a few days or a week to acclimate to your house first. They will love succulent soil. They will need a lot of sun and will grow for you really well. Be careful with the burro’s tail, the leaves are very fragile, so don’t get upset when (not if 😁) leaves drop during the repotting, just take the leaves and drop them back in the soil, they will root on their own.

You should definitely repot them if they came in a 2 inch pot from a big box store. The soil they use is rather crappy and they would do better in real soil.
