For sure. Having a good root mass is key to any plant. It holds moister better and absorbs nutrients more readily. I

t's the plants goal to have it grow over time and you are trying to maximize. If you let that thing run free, it will burn up it's energy and not push out in stages very fast.

In my experience plants with tighter roots always do better, and have more uniform and predictable grow as the amount of soil being monitored is smaller.

Don't be lazy and let it become too tight.

Shoot for the middle, grow it in stages of pots.

Starting it in a 1 gallon. In gardening once you have a 1 gallon pot stabilized, you have a plant that can get put about anywhere with proper soil.
