Sorting out pond plants

Can anyone advise me as to the best time to sort out, repot etc pond plants growing in aquatic baskets.

I only planted my pond up in april/may time and did it in a bit of a rush (plants put in, in nursery pots or in too small a basket to save time). Consequently some plants have outgrown their baskets and in the case of a couple of plants that were put together in one big pot, they need providing with their own pots/baskets. I also need to thin out the oxegenator (elodea) which has gone berserk with growth.

Can I do this now/in autumn or should i wait until spring?

Thanks

 

No reason why you can't do it now I am constantly thinning out mine without any detriment I usually leave it a day piled up at the side so any wildlife can crawl back in plants like elodea will grow across the bottom you will have a job to contain it in a pot just weight it down tie it to a stone in a clump and throw it in
