Rido, one of the common "pot larger than the root system" problems is overwatering. The drying time of soil in pots is a combination of what moisture the plant can use, evaporation and organic matter in the soil. The larger the pot, the longer it takes for a plant to use the water and the slower the evaporation. A lot or organic matter slows the process even more. Never ever use moisture control soil.
When I repot my JMs, I usually discover the roots fill the pot. I don't increase the size of the pot, I decrease the mass of the root ball. JMs in pots don't need that much root mass because they don't need to seek water. My JMs are on a drip system and are watered every other day. I use a good brand of potting soil and add pumice or perlite. Lots of organic matter but lots of "fluffiness" too.
Nhra_20, You are right on the border climate wise, of being able to grow a JM at all. If you keep any in pots be prepared to winter over in a shed or garage. All mine are in heavy ceramic pots but also protected in a courtyard. Plants in pots should be hardy to 2 zones below yours. Therefore, it doesn't really matter whether your pots are plastic or pottery or wood because they won't be able to spend the winter outside anyway.
Ceramic pots used to be cheaper. I have gotten some really great pots over the years but when I look at prices these days, my heart stops. When you find a pot, just put a single sheet of newspaper or some window screen in the bottom, nothing else.
