First, thank you for your support and patience. It’s been a busy year establishing Epic Grower LLC in Cleveland, Georgia the gateway to the Mountains. Planting started earlier this year for 2021 late winter and spring seasons. Up potting continually occurs at nurseries and homes. Do you know when and how to correctly re-pot your plants?
Plant Types – Different Planting season
Planting and growing healthy container plants requires you to know the requirements. If you re-pot a plant at the wrong time it could double or triple the recuperation time. It’s better to be patient and wait for the right season. What’s good for one plant is not for another. Winter blooming camellias japonicas do best when planted in the spring (winter blooming). Camellia sasanqua do best in early spring or late winter (fall blooming).

Recent Up Size Potting of Goji Berry
Normally, Goji berries are best planted in spring when the threat of frost is over. Yes, goji berry tolerates cold weather including frost. However, when you re-pot take into account plant recuperation time and weather. The goji berries started by seed last fall.
Epic Grower repotted many of them into 1-gallon containers. We added a bamboo trellis to grow the plant taller/thicker. Without the trellis the goji berry would spread out too much.
Next year we plan to move some into the ground after threat of frost is over (we are zone 6a-7) so people who visit our location can see them growing. According to USDA most zones in the USA but if would protect them in zones lower than 5 until you test them. Go ahead and move them into the gallon pots before the season ends. Gradually move them from partial sun to full sun.
You need to know your plants. If you are not sure about a particular plant please post a question on this blog.
