I've had my Monstera for about 6 years now, and it's currently in a pretty large pot. I repotted it last year from a 15-inch pot to a 16-inch pot, but it's filled with roots again and barely any soil. I'm running out of space for bigger pots. What are my options? When should I consider stopping the repotting process?

One option is to take cuttings from your Monstera and sell or give them away. That way, you can keep your plant at a manageable size without needing to move to a larger pot! It can be a fun way to propagate too!
I like to take a sharp knife and trim off about the bottom third of the root ball, then put it back in the same pot. It helps keep the plant healthy without needing a bigger container.
It sounds like you’re in a tricky spot! Basically, you should stop repotting when you don’t want the plant to get any bigger. If you love the size it is now, that’s your cue!
