Potbound, what to do when repotting? Male
Default Potbound, what to do when repotting?

I've got this GrammCym Mem. Nathan Newman 'NN' that I'm going to repot. The newest growth is hanging over the edge of the pot. The existing pot seemed lumpy. I started to peel the pot away and found that this guy is FULL of roots.

How far should I go to try to get the old media out?

How much damage should I do to the existing roots to get the old media out?

I've got a pot that's about 1.5" larger (6") and clear that I'm planning to put this guy in.

It's good to know that he's healthy!
