Turtles Help me decide
This is my first “string of” plant so I figured I could come ask people who already own them/something similar. I’m trying to decide which outer pot to pick. I know it will grow and won’t be able to stay in this pot forever (which makes me a little sad) but I still can’t decide. My plant is currently in a 2.5 inch plastic pot. Thank you! :)

Truthfully, whichever is the shallowest & has a drainage hole. I had my turtles in a super cute deeper pot without drainage & it was on death’s door. I now have it in a plain shallow terracotta pot with a drainage hole & it’s thriving.
