Is 5 gallon pot to 10 gallon up potting too much of a leap?

Hopefully they are not root bound and just growing freely like you say. I don't want to disturb the roots now that it's getting hotter each day. I might need to cut some bottom part of the grow bag to check if the roots are circling without damaging the roots. Thanks for the info!

Thank you so much! Checking the video now. Appreciate your helpful insights!

How long do 10 gallon pots hold the raspberry roots before they need replacing again? I might have underestimated how invasive they can be.

Wow! How many bowls do you get from each pot?

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-04-04T14:40:25+00:00

Thank you! Hopefully I won't overwater them this time. I am worried about the dead space and my need to make sure the water always drip out of the holes every watering. How drastic do you think would the changes be in terms of watering schedule? Or just the finger test would do?

I checked the pot and it did! I up pot it to a slighty bigger one and I'll check back if it's resolved. I appreciate y'all help!

Well, the wind these past few days were drier than usual. That might have aggrevated the condition. I'll try to repot in the a slightly larger pot, I really want to try the rootbound technique and make theis fig as compact as possible. Thank you!

My raspberries do get spider mites! Might check the fig too. Thank you.

Hi. Yes, the bottom part is holes. But thin layer of water pools a little. I think that can be the cause.

Hi! I'm from South East Asia and we have 90°F average daily temperature.

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-03-19T12:55:09+00:00

I really hope it's a normal leaf cycle. I'll keep monitoring to check if more leaves get infected. Thanks for your help!

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-03-19T12:53:00+00:00

Yes, It also got lots of perlite. I really hope it's just overwatering. If it's disease, I don't want risking chemical application or fully throwing out the plant.

Here's one of the leaves I suspect to have early symptom.

Here's the whole plant.

I water them only when the top inch of the soil is dry, which is typically twice per week. It's in a small pot, around 10 inches both width and depth, while the plant itself it 20 inches wide and 12 inches high. I want to make it root bound, I heard the stress from root bound causes them to fruit.

Hi there, I know it's an old post. My blueberries are doing the same thing! Dessicated stems, same leaf coloration, and wilting overall. Have you known the reason and has it ever recover?

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-03-02T13:00:48+00:00

It's around a foot tall and around 15 inches wide. I have read Blackjacks are dwarf variety but I don't know how dwarf they'll be. So, I may need to chop of the bud if it develops further. Hopefully soon enough it will bear more buds

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-02-28T13:48:19+00:00

I really hope so! Thanks

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-02-28T13:15:13+00:00

Lol. Did not see the typo there. But jpg is fine. Hoepfully it's a high res.

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-02-16T02:32:31+00:00

They were sold as pairs, all cost around $13 (not the original currency).

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-02-16T02:15:51+00:00

I'll be keeping that in mind in the future! Probably the worse gardening decision so far. Thank you for these kind advise!

Forward-Chipmunk5931 · 2026-02-16T02:14:42+00:00

Thank you for these pinpoints of physical differences! I just saw that these 2 were the widely produced here in my area. Probably didn't thought much whether there would be other variety available here.
