Every year around March, I go around the entire house and figure out which plants need to be repotted. I mark them by sticking a toothpick in the soil, just so I don’t forget. Then I go around and make a list of which size pots I’ll need for those plants. After I’ve gathered my pots, it’s time to repot. Keep reading for tips on how to know if your plants need repotting.<\/p>\n

How do I know when it’s time?<\/h4>\n

In general, plants will exhibit signs.  If you see root exposed on the top of the soil or growing out the drainage hole, it’s time to repot!  You can also hold the plant on its side and gently pull out the plant.  If the roots are coiled up around the bottom and the whole thing comes out of the pot easily, it’s time!  One other way is if you notice the plant hasn’t grown in a while or it’s been in the same pot for 2-3 years, its probably time.<\/p>\n
