Thumbs down magnific black pine dying - Follow-up question

Follow-up question …

Few days ago I shared my concerns about a black pine I’ve acquired:

http://forum.bonsaitalk.com/f6/magnific-black-pine-dying-25595.html

And here’s a follow up question:

I placed the tree in a semi shade area and I took it off its pot. The roots are in a very bad condition: some are rotted, very dense and the soil is very compacted.

Water does not drain or maybe very slowly.

So without touching the root ball and the soil structure, I placed the tree in a bigger bonsai pot and filled the remaining space loosely with soil.



Question:

I know I have to wait till later this winter to repot without taking too much root of.

But is there anything else I can/should do?

Do you have any comments or suggestion.

Namaste,

C-
