I read somewhere, I can't remember where though, that in autumn roots continue to grow and bolster pretty vigorously and this effect occurs up until December in California. I know most people say no repotting until early spring/late winter, but wouldn't "Up-potting" be beneficial in autumn if this is the case? Simply light teasing of roots, or non existent teasing and placing soil/root ball in a larger pot with more room. Large root mass developed in fall would mean a greater spring flush? Referring generally to deciduous trees, and also specifically to a one gallon Oregon White oak I picked up at a nursery that is already root bound.
Appreciate everyone's point of view for this. I may be way off base and wrong about up-potting in fall, but as I dive deeper into bonsai and horticulture; it seems there are different ways of thinking in the community.
