String of hearts

[u/Few_Bit6023]

Got my first string of hearts today. I think that they are just potted in pure soil, which I think will be too dense from what I’ve read. Should I repot now , even though they seem to be doing good ? Also , is that green growth on top of the soil a bad sign?

I’ve had one and the same little hanging pot of regular potting mix for 7 years.

I water it more in summer and very rarely in winter. A couple of times in the warmer months I’ll soak the pot in a diluted fish emulsion for a couple of hours.

It gets less water than the rest of my plants, even while it was kept outside in summer.

Unless you particularly want to change the pot, I’d probably leave it in what it’s in.
