She clearly is 😂 I have never seen anything so root-bound in my life. I was super concerned about her from going yellow frequently and dropping leaves so I checked her roots. I’ve had her maybe 4 months and this is nuts! Worked on those roots for 3 hours trying to loosen up that root ball but I finally got her into a bigger pot

Oh my!!
Ur plant decided that it wants to be a pot instead
How I know I am not as dedicated as you guys. I would have broke apart with my hands for 1min and repotted and left it to god lol
I worked on my 26 year old Yucca 2 weekends ago. First time taking it out of the pot. Not as bad as yours, but a couple of hours for sure. Managed to salvage the spider plant was in there for 10 years or so.

not any more
Please don’t hang me for that question, I’d like to learn. Is it absolutely necessary to untangle the roots, or can you just plant it in a bigger pot?

Some plants just prefer to live in their own root mass rather than soil. Repotted this one a few weeks ago.
I was wondering why my spiderplant wasn’t growing and it looked a bit like this haha. Infinite noodles!
naaahhh you’ve still got a few molecules of dirt in there she’s fine

This one may need a new pot too

No, this is /rootporn my friend.
No she’s just making spaghetti

It looks like noodles! Yummy
That’s a really cool container
Look at me. I am the pot now.
I thought this was a bird’s nest.
No I think it’s just may
thought this was r/houseplantscirclejerk for a second
I like plants but honestly root bound views like this kind of make me sick 🤢
Id honestly downsize, looks like theres some air still instead of roots.
Surprisingly, it was still thriving

Since we’re sharing… here’s my most root bound plant… after trying to tease. The roots fused and couldn’t be separated.
Omg I wish I could add more than one imagine lmaoooo
It’s a self-weaving basket
After my grandpa died I took in some of his plants. They were so root bound, I’ve never smelled anything so nasty.
