I have learned to repot by lithops right away in gritty soil, but I have never had a blooming one (or getting ready to bloom) could resist the purchase as I haven’t had a blooming lithops yet, got started last late fall.
I’m curious what others say, but I would leave them until they’re done and repot later.

You can repot if you don’t water, they might quit flowering but they won’t die

If you’d like to enjoy the flowers then I’d say let them be. I’m doing the exact same thing right now and just monitoring their health for any decline. I feel as long as they aren’t watered they will be okay to be repotted until they’re done flowering. I have even left splitting lithops in their organic soil and waited out their split and they have survived. I hope this helps!

Yes very helpful, while I want the plant long term. I really want to see the flowering. How long do they typically flower for?

Nada impende. Mas pode correr um risco de um abortamento por causa do stress, principalmente se você mexer nas raízes. Se for uma transplante simples tudo bem.

Spring , as usual is the optimal time
