Hi everyone! New to Lithops, been doing a lot of research and learning a lot, just picked up these guys and just wondering if it’s okay to repot while flowering? Or is it better to wait till it’s done and then repot?
Hey there! Good job on doing the research – I’m sure your plants will thank you for that later:) It will flower for a few days only, so might as well wait a little bit. Unless you have watered them recently while they are still in this nursery soil – if this is the case, I’d repot them as soon as possible.

Always repot immediately. During flowering, one might wish to water, but if you do that in this kind of soil, everybody will end up rotted. Get them into something inorganic and then you’ll be free to do what is needed whenever that is.
