It depends on where you live & what conifer. Where you live, (close to my zone - 6a) I would suggest you repot Juniperus, Taxus, Chamaecyparis, Thuja, Tsuga, ...... just about everything but Pinus. About the time buds are moving on most woody deciduous material in the landscape - about the time Forsythia blooms. Repot Pinus around mid-July to early August. All conifers prefer a gritty, fast draining soil.
