My cousin recently field collected a southern pine. It’s in a nursery pot with the original soil which is mostly sand. The main tap root was severed, however not all the way back to the shin. Appears to have a few large roots extending from the root ball. Not sure what to do with it now. Let it ride the season and see how it survives and move to a larger container next spring or repot now and no needle or branch work until next year. My fear is to move it into a grow box with bonsai soil and it doesn’t survive the repot.

Is Yamadori collecting trees from the wild?

Yes.
Usually very old trees, battered by wind and bad wheather, with personality and scars.
Yours is a young pine.
