Hi, I just became a houseplant grower about 2 weeks ago due to my a/c contractor's advice on growing indoor plants for refreshing air. Now I have dozen of small/medium plants inside and more than dozen questions/problems for you kind people. First, I got a 10" pot (plastic) of 20+ snake plants (about 10" to 30" tall, half are 25+"). I thought the pot is small for the bunch, so got a 12" clay pot (also taller). Then b4 re-potting, I read that snake plants love to bound their roots so small, tight pot is good. Now I hesitated and like to hear 2nd opinion here.

If it's a go, should I remove the old plastic pot? or just keep it and put the whole thing in the new pot and add/fill mix?

Thanks for help.
