Need some advice on whether or not I should repot. I received this Ceph about 8 months ago and decided to put it in a larger pot. I didn't want to disturb the roots so I basically slid the ceph out of the 3.5 inch pot it was in soil and all and put it into a new pot with more soil.
Now I am noticing that the old soil is devloping some white fuzzy fungus and this scares the bejeebers out of me. I have no problems repoting other cps but I have never repotted a ceph because I have read that they do not like this one bit.
It is currently in a 6" pot in a tray of water. I let the water dry before re-watering.
What do you think? Should I repot? You can faintly see the white fuzz, it is more noticable to the naked eye. I would like to repot in a more airy medium but not sure if now is the time.
