Just acquired this one at a local nursery. Good size trunk and overall size. I’ve read a few folks say that dwarf jades can got into a pot anytime a year and others suggesting in middle of summer. Is it too late to repot or would it be fine? Still working on making some trimming and but figured I’d ask here for folks more experienced with these. I’m in zone 9a, still pretty hot here.

biggest risk with portos is wet feet after repotting. I doubt that is an issue there and temps will remain comfortable. So I would not hesitate in your climate.
Nice, thanks for the advice. Yeah I got a few small ones that I’ve gotten used to taking care of that are doing great. This one is definitely a big one but figured I’d ask about repotting
 
I shoot for early to mid summer here. They really start getting active then.
They can take a beating for sure but you'll get a better response in this time frame.
And its a dry season, they hate staying wet.
