How do you trim the roots in a container fig tree

#Ficus
18” pot with drainage
Last watered 11 months ago
Next time you water it push the sides of the container and it should pop out the roots then trim
After you trim roots let it sit out for half a day so you don’t put the cut roots back in the soil right away to avoid infection. Just use clean scissors and only do a little at a time? I have found when I have trimmed roots on plants and went over kill I killed my whole plant. Just trim don’t shear!
