While the roots may be a little tight in the pot, I don't think they are quite rootbound. They're 7" square by at least 10" deep. Probably 1.5-2 gallons. They certainly had no problem getting 25-30" tall...from my experience (25 years), I'd say.rootbound,way to much chemicals, for small plant(causing yellowing).Browning spots are from excessive moisture, or lack of venting. More fresh air ,less heat,root triming, nitrogen, taken out of intence light for 3 days ,thier should be major improvement
While the heat has been an issue in the last few days, this started when temps were hovering around 80. And by too much moisture you mean overwatering? Because I'm pretty sure that isn't the problem either.
Fresh air...maybe. My area is 17"w X 30"d by 60"h and has no real "vent" per se. But in order to keep temps down, I have to blast a 12" standing fan in there. It's like a freaking wind tunnel, but it keeps them cool enough. Lots of air circulation.
At this point, I'm not willing to trim anything off the roots. I'm not going to remove them from their pots and stress them MORE as they try to finish out their lives.
Thanks for your input Brianjox, and I'll post some pics as leaves continue to fall off my plant.
