Hey I just got a money three I want to make it grow I have done some research but I don’t have a good idea how big should be the pot for transplanting and how much should I wait with his current size before I do that

You don’t need a big pot. They will grow to full trees if you let them. Let them get root bound before upsizing the pot. Once it’s at your desired size and root bound, prune roots and refresh soil, do not upside pot.

I have one and noticed a plastic binding at the bottom of the trunk. Should I remove it to allow the trunk to grow or is it keeping it twisty?

I remove the binding(it will eventually kill the plants, when, nobody knows). It’s said the braid is holding the luck. So I unbraid my trees and let the luck into my home. If left braided you will probably have 1-2 trees that eventually get overtaken by the others and die. These are a pain to remove if braided. Usually just an ugly mess. I’ll see if I can track down a picture of mine to share

Cropped from a pic a few years ago but there you have it
