Root pruning

North Vancouver, BC(Zone 8b)

Just how drastically can you root prune a brug? I have several that have been in the same pots for 2 years. Can I reduced the root mass by half without damaging the plant? Will it dramatically delay bloom? The roots are nice and white, so are still healthy. But I'd like to keep them in the same size pot.

Roots can be pruned without problems. The best time to do this is in the spring. But dont fotget that Sprouts of GH grown plants must be pruned too according to loss of roots.
Otherwise, the plant will have much problems.
