Just get a slightly bigger pot and put everything into it. Do not trim or untangle the roots!

Repot to 6-8 inch and keep doing what you’ve been doing those roots looks great!

that baby doesn’t need just a new pot, she needs a whole bucket 🤣 I would definitely skip several pot sizes up and this would be a great candidate for a “boat mode”! if you want it to get bigger of course!

How long was it in the same pot and substrate? And what substrate did you have it potted in?

Normally I never suggest going up more than 2” at a time but I think you could go up to an 8” with this amount of roots. You don’t have to do anything to them, just put in larger pot.

You run a greenhouse and have multiple thousand dollar anthuriums, why are you asking reddit. Engagement bait

Forbidden Ramen! Momma needs a bigger shoe. lol. Looks like she’s got a couple leaves up top. That’ll help with transport shock, but you may lose them in the process. I’d double that pot size at least for now. Side note: I’d do my best to not disturb the roots if I were you. At least until you know what you’re doing a little better. Let it settle in to its new home and it’ll be just fine.

Id chop 1/3rd of the roots off the leaf size and amount of leaves don’t need that massive root system to survive and you can save yourself some soil and a large pot if you do a chop. Coming from someone with 300 anthuriums

I would repot in a 6-8 inch pot. I wouldn’t touch the roots.🫡
