I've got this Musa Basjoo. It measures 45cm in height and grows in a pot which measures 36cm in diameter and 36cm in height. It's only a month and a half since I uppotted it and the roots are already coming out of the bottom.

It looks a bit stupid since the pot is so big and the plant is so "small" and another problem is, pots in that size is not cheap.

Should I prune the roots or something? I'm just so afraid to do something wrong and accidentally kill it.

But I just can't keep potting up every two month...of cause, if that what it takes, that's what I'm gonna have to do.
