Schefflera repotting - First post

Hello ! This is my first post.

I have 7 scheffleras which I will be repotting in the next two weeks. I am planning on sharing them with you for comments/opinions/discussion.

This first one isn’t my favorite, I started with the less vigorous one and not quite happy with how it turned out. I will try to bend the branches in about a month to make it make more sense

What do you think

Looks good. Not happy? It's just getting started. Looks healthy, happy, & I like it. What soil are you using?

Where are you located so that you can safely repot it now?

Yes, share more, please.
It's hard to get a small scheflera with mature looking trunk around this parts...

Yeah this was the least happy of the bunch, im using coco, perlite, small gravel, grey pumice

Im in canada in ottawa, so late winter here but since mi February we have sun from 6h30 to 17h30 and slowly entering spring. It’s not quite the right time but since I have grow lights, controlled environment and closely monitor them i feel safe. I’ve had most of theses since 2016 so I’m using to dealing with them with some repotting in the wrong time (hopefully I don’t jinx myself ). Most of them were repotted 3 years ago so full of stored energy

Here’s another repot from tonight

Slightly trimmed to balance root work and reduce water needs

I do a lot of my smaller tropical repotting during the winter. Keeps me occupied and also helps manage growth a bit better due to the controlled environment.

I just asked because you never know what experience level people are. Sounds and looks like you know what you're doing. For the record I'm not against winter repotting . Looks like you have some really nice Schefflera can't wait to see more. I have a few that I'm working on, and I'll be watching yours.

Thanks I really appreciate it !
