when it is root bound transplant them, put them into 3 gallon pots atleast, 5 if you have space.

when you can pull the plant out of the pot and all the soil comes out covered with roots you have root bound. simply turn the pot up side down and gently tap it like you were making a sand castle. if the soil does not fall out into your hand easly then you should try to wait. also do this when the soil is good and dry.
