Hello Everyone,

I have a Wisteria that is about 3-4 months old (planted the seed in November of last year). Its been growing great and is incredible healthy. Its starting to get some bark on the base of the stem. My question is should I repot it this early or wait until this upcoming November to repot? With the growing season upon us I would think I should repot it, but just not sure if its still too young. Don't want to harm it to the point that it dies off. Any advice on this would help me out a lot! I'm very indecisive so I need an outside parties help! Thanks!

I've attached a picture of what it looks like now for reference.

I dont think it looks like it needs repotting.

Your wisteria should be outside, and leafless/dormant now.
As soon as temps in your part of the world are rising, place it outside and keep it there for the rest of its life.
Repotting is done early spring, when buds start to shift, but as Tropfrog said, it doesnt look like it needs it yet.

I have it next to an open window. I'm nervous about putting it outside right now cause its still cold where I live. But when it starts to warm up I will move it outdoors. Im working on building a small homemade greenhouse for not just my bonsai but my other plants as well. My sister is a plant biologist so we have an overflow of plants in our house lol
