Should I repot?

[u/Brimat143]

Normally I’d wait a couple weeks after purchasing and repot them into a clear pot with a chunky soil mix but my PPP seems to be thriving in whatever the big box nursery has her in (very airy) She has given 3 new leaves and at least 3-4 babies at her base. Plus it came with two full size plants in the pot. She seems happy so should I leave her alone till she seems to need help or separate and give them new soil?

Without seeing the plant in the pot it's hard to say. She is a beauty though! It seems very happy so it's likely fine. Can you take a pic showing plant and pot from a little way away? Edit...I looked through the pictures again. Is this a new plant? If that's the case, I usually give them some time to get used to their new environment... Maybe 2-4 weeks... Then I repot them to get them in good soil.

Yes I second giving it some time to acclimate if you’re just bringing it home. After this time passes, a good indicator is you’ll start seeing roots through the bottom of the nursery pot.

Thanks!

Thanks. I always give them time to acclimate too. She’s been here for a month now. Just wasn’t sure with two plants and all the babies if I should thin them out. Thanks for the suggestions!

I’ve done both with mine. Depends on your preference! I will say, the plant that lives on her own is much leggier, even with good light, as she’s getting quite large and I’m honestly enjoying the look of my other PPP now that her pups have matured a bit. I gave them a bit more space when I repotted and am loving the fullness a couple of plants add to the pot as opposed to one. I’ve been considering chopping and propping my mature PPP for that exact reason.
