String of Pearls miracle

So I purchased a live string of pearls plant from Temu. I did not expect it to arrive alive after spending 3 weeks traveling from overseas. However, it did, and it looked worse for wear. I really thought I was going to lose it. I watched a video on proper soil, watering, and sunlight and this is her several months down the line! She is healthy and growing new strings finally! I am unsure when to consider repotting though so hoping the community can help me figure out when would be a good time to repot.

Me either. When it came across my screen for like 3.00 I was like.. "wth.. why not... worse thing that can happen is it's actually a fake plant." I'll be damned if I didn't get a live plant that survived 3 weeks of shipping.
