I second, what Mark has said. Stick the plant into a bigger pot with room to expand and the roots
will find their way into the new soil.

Having said that, you are not clear, if you winter all bananas indoors. I live in HZ6 and leave all
Basjoos with a PS higher than 18 inches outside. I find, that they can take the freezing back better,
than the disruption of two trans-plantings, or worse yet, the dry root storage in basement or
garage. This year I fully intent to leave my young E. Maurelii outside.

Best.
