Repotting Sempervivum.

I have a large collection of named Sempervivum in pots outside.
They need to be re-potted and as it will take a while I was wondering if it is too early to start now!
Some pots have cracked over the years so need replacing.
Living on the Isle of Wight so relatively warm here but wet.

    They are as tough as can be. No problem repotting now.

    They are impossible to discombobulate (well, almost 😉), so go for it!

    Thanks.
    I had thought that but just wanted confirmation!!
    They will be re-potted into a dry gritty mix so wet should not be too much of a proble.

    Yes, excess wetness would upset them more than repotting.   My collection is under the porch which keeps them out of the worst of this weather.  I need to repot a few myself.  If it is less windy tomorrow, I might get that job started. 👍
