u need to repot with a pot that has 20% perlite to soil rato also when u tranplant try to break up the soil around the roots they cant breathe and it will lead to root rot fast

yes or it will lead to root rot sorry. basically roots need air with out any perlite the soil gets compacted on them and they dont get air and rot
