The task took me longer than I anticipated, mostly because after a closer look almost everything needed more root space. The collection below is about a half of my plants that were moved. For now, they'll stay in the sunroom; I plan to move them inside when the nights get colder, probably around the first frosts.

Repotting
Today was the repotting day. According to my mom and Latvian forefathers, things have to be seeded or planted while the moon is waxing. (Do so when the moon is waning, and nothing will grow; hence it's a good time for haircuts!) This superstition was a good enough excuse to transfer some of my indoor plants to bigger pots while the days are still sunny and warm and there's another month or so before the plants will enter dormancy stage.
