When do I repot my plants?

If you ask me, when do I repot my plants? Honestly any times I purchase them from the nursery I do not repot them until they existentially need it. Now what do I mean by they "Existentially need it" is either when I am rescuing a plant or when my plant stops growing because of it being rootbound. By it being rootbound I mean roots hanging from the bottom of the pot and your pot starts to look more like a ramen bowl.

How to repot a root bound plant?

The process is very simple you just need to pull your rootbound plant from the existing planter. Then you will loosen up the soil covering the roots with a gentle massage and then you will accommodate the plant in a one inch bigger pot with some well draining soil mix and just water it thoroughly. I advise you to not to be greedy, by giving it with too big of a pot, because that can cause root rot in the roots of your fast growing champ!
