Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

You pull them out the pot? I flip the pot upside down (with my hand on the soil, fingers spread like I'm greeting a Vulcan, on either side of the base of the plant) and let it slide out with gravity, this way there's no force being applied to the plant and no chance of saving it. Dry soil like you suggested is a good trick too.
All of my plants are in pots as big as my torso right now, so yes, I have to gently tug on them once they're tipped over.
Might struggle to flip those upside down, aye
