Rip,

Hey dude, what's goin' on with you. Things here have been busy so I've been lurking around instead of posting but now that the semester's over, things are settling down.

I repotted this tree a little earlier than normal because we had a fairly mild winter and daytime temps were climbing into the 70's regularly. When I root pruned, I just nipped the ends of the finer roots since it was going back into a growing pot and not a bonsai pot. Now the water thing may be a problem. I am using a fairly quickly draining mix but we've had a wet spring so the soil has been wet for longer periods than normal. After looking at the tree this morning, I'm afraid it's toast. I'm going to leave it in the pot and see what happens but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Later
