Good afternoon all,
I have owned my first ever plant the robust Mother-In-Law's Tongue for 27 months now and over that time the soil has depleted to a level where I feel it requires more as when I lift the pot the plant wobbles a little and I am worried the base of the plant is becoming exposed. In addition the soil doesn't look great in particular when dried out.
My initial thought was to repot with new soil however I have read that this can have a negative impact so unless I am repotting due to the roots spreading this is not advisable until that time arrives.
Is it best to just top up with new soil or should I repot with completely new soil ? I am planning on using a cacti & succulent potting mix.
Please feel free to comment on the photos below;
Many thanks for those that are able to provide advice,
Jay.
