Serrated edge Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 It would help but you'd need to repot pronto before budding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Bootlace Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 and as that pots already resonably large not easy to do 100% smoothly. But yeah, id say now or never. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serrated edge Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 If you repot ,drier helps it all hold together than if wet ....as the heaviness from the moisture will cause areas of medium not held together by roots to fall away ,...damaging what roots were in that area 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonkeyCongo Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Sandy soil isnt a problem, dig a much bigger hole and back fill with potting mix, wont be hard to dig if its sandy soil, I put my 4 girls into the ground a few weeks back and they pulled out of a larger pot than you have real easy. I didn't need to bash on the sides of pot to get them to move, that's how they get plants out of pots on the tv shows , just bash the side of pot.I did damage the roots on one as I got over eager roughing up the sides of dirt/roots, they do that on the tv shows too, it stops the plant getting root bound in the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indycar Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 A quick repot into 50 litre pot. As others have said, sooner, rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brick Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 hrrm very true. il have to look up some methods on replanting when large. cheers for the heads up before budding You could get a bigger pot fill to 3/4 full with your medium of choice. Then cut the bottom out of your existing pot and place on the medium in the larger pot and back fill with medium. A lot easier than trying to replant into a bigger pot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
