We're about a month away from being able to take my GM out in the backyard once again, here in Ohio.

I went to give a bit of fertilizer to it last night, and I noticed it has grown to be root bound in the pot (yes, under grow lights in the winter in Ohio).

We are so close to being able to put it outdoors that I am wondering if I need to do something about this now.

Here's my question: once it is warm enough to sustain growth outside, I'd like to transplant my GM into the ground during the summer months. Then, obviously, put it back into a pot and bring it in during the winter (albeit to a much bigger pot). Can I do this safely?

If I can safely swap between the pot and the ground, think I can wait another month in its current pot? I'd rather not go through the shock of making a pot switch for only one month.

Thanks.
