when i transplant do i remove all the extra side root when it bounded like so and jus leave the middle root ball or do i drop it into the new pot as is ? ive read to remove all the sides n dirt to root ball but seem to see everyone jus drop them into new pots as is

What you can do is take a box cutter, stick the blade about a 1/2in. At the bottom of the root mass and slice vertically towards the top of the plant, this helps the plant grow new roots, this is a form of root pruning.

thanks for reply that a good idea but i want to know if its okay to jus break away everything on sides til i jus get to middle ball root and use some stim root. im eventually moving outside but until then am confined to a limited amount of grow space in closet. which means my pots are only able to go deeper not so much wider. til i move outside n will get them exactly size pots the need
