no such thing as root bound in pot plants. what do you mean "drooping"? got a pic?

you may have been over watering or under watering or lacking something the new soil had in it. big pots make for more comfortable roots but roots will not grow to the point of harming the plant.

That is a commonly held fallacy among those with lesser experience.

What's up guys? Hey Brick Top. What if it was rootbound? How do you fix that? Do you pull the ball out and prune it a certain way? If so, do you want to cut them all, just the taproot, or just the sides, or what?

Im not sure cutting your roots is any better for your plant than having its roots constrained...if the roots have filled the pot you may need to water more than normal as theres not as much soil per area to hold in moisture.

ID try that at least give it a few days trial before you go cutting your plants roots man.

the more roots there are in the container the more water and neuts they use quicker soo just water it more often thats all
