Hi Small Footprint!! 👋🏼👋🏼 😮😀 Be confident that this whole time you have been doing exactly what you were supposed to. Otherwise known as being awesome. 😎😎
You guys are so helpful. I hope you know how everyone appreciates all of your videos. Passing along all your knowledge is so important and boy are you knowledgeable. How lucky you are to have each other to garden with.💚💚💚

Hi Fall Out Girl! 👋 Thank YOU for watching and for leaving us your comment. We are really happy this video was helpful. Yes, cutting roots from root-bound plants can be helpful, especially when planting in your ground beds or repotting. The key is to not remove more than 1/4 to 1/3 of any plants roots so they still have the ability to take up water and nutrients. Also, with any transplanting, be ready for some level of transplant shock, especially if you do end up root pruning. Most plants will have some kind of balance between their overall above-ground mass and their root system below grown. This usually is referred to as the Root-to-Shoot ratio. It can be generally applied to most plants, but there are always the outliers that might not fit this, too. Hope all this is helpful! 😉👍
This happened to a tree I just transplanted lately because I noticed the leafs wilting 🤦♂️ I did not cut the roots or break them apart like this .. should I open it back up !? I went to a larger pot
Hi The fire king!! 👋🏼👋🏼 Thank you for watching and for your good question. That's fun you planted a tree in a larger pot! So, we would recommend that you do dig your tree back up, break up and spread the roots out so they grow out into the soil and not keep the same pot-bound/root-bound shape. Since you just planted it a few days ago, it should be ok to pull it back up before it really tries to get established in it's new location. This will help our tree not only be anchored better in it's new home, but it will help it take up more water and nutrients faster, which can lead to general better health and also help your plant establish faster in its new home leading to a longer life span, all other things being equal, like watering, right soil, sunlight, and optimum weather. Most plants with their roots left growing in the pot-bound shape will start to either girdle or fuse together, leading to above ground die-back and leaving most plants open to higher incidences of disease and insect damage, because they will be under stress which creates perfect situations for diseases and insects. The leaves wilting can be a just a sign of transplant shock, so make sure to check the soil moisture level so that the roots are kept in moist soil and can recover any lost moisture around their roots while the tree was being transplanted. Hope that helps and and we hope your tree is nice and healthy in the weeks to come. 😉😊👍👍
@@SpokenGarden yes thank you 👍 I took it back out the pot and spread out the roots and cut back some and washed all the old soil off the roots and gave it more soil now it'll start off fresh

Love how you pronounce roots lol “ruit” where ya from?
Thanks, lol! Sean gets a lot of feedback about that. 🤣 We're from the PNW, WA state.
I was wondering whether it would help to spray water on it from a hose to disentangle it?
What is that beautiful bush in the background?
Completely rootbound
Canadian mate?
