Yeah, I'm with napa23 in that it's really unlikely that they've become rootbound in 10 gallon pots, unless they are trees?lol They'd have to be like 6' tall, and 6' wide, to get to that point. My guess is that they were underfed, and going N deficient. Or, it could be a PH problem, if they've been in the pots for a long time, and have never been flushed.(soil tends to go acidic over time, and nutes speed up the process)

well i transplanted it 2 days ago and it looked root bound, today that main cola still lookin dead but the rest of the plant looks ok, should i snip the cola off? or let it do its thing? i normally dont get to involved, just leave it alone
