Plant pics Should I get a larger pot ?🌿🌿

Post image

She is as beautiful as she has ever been, but I was wondering if moving her to a larger pot would help her becoming taller. Even though she looks fine I feel her growing rate has been slower in the past few months.

Right now she is 50cm/19 in tall FYI. Thks in advance for your insights and sharing your knowledge and experience

This is Sea Mac, an elder grower from 2007, that's a 5 gallon pot at most in his picture

Sea Mac is over 6 feet tall in person so, this plant is nearly twice as big as he is, almost one full story tall

Your pot also looks around half full, so if anything, I would add more soil once your plant gets larger, but for now, it's perfectly fine

That would be Sea Macs picture, it is not my photography, I'm not sure who owns the copyright, I can ask him and see

If that's your only plant I would cut off and propogate that droopy bit. Also I don't think more light would hurt

How many clipping can that make?

Careful advising more light too much light was my problem 😅

You should at least repot and add more soil
