How do you plan on doing it?

A dolly won't work on a 65 g smart pot. I will dig up my plant, fill buckets with the soil mix, set up the pot inside & plant the nana back in it. But first, I will wrap the bottom with plastic tarp. When you thoroughly water it, you will see water dripping out around the sides.
When I water mine outside, it takes 6- 10 gal to water it. I keep a dowel in soil to bottom of pot - about 4 inches inside, & pull it up to check the moisture on it. You might think you watered enough but this is the only way to check how far water went down. Soil dries faster around the outside because of the fabric...just a little different than watering in plastic pots which hold more water.
Oh yeah, as you fill them, pack the soil firmly around edges & wet it so that the pot won't sag when soil settles.
