My gosh....just cut away as much as the net as you can and pot it up again

there but you!
Pot away!

I bought an Ascocenda from a vendor who shall never get another
$. They had just potted up the 4" net pot into a nursery pot and
the net pot was strangling the Ascda. I too was at fault for
taking the fresh mix on the top to be "recently repotted." Now
I buy my Ascda unpotted or at least with not enough mix to cover
a problem. Better dry roots than strangled.
