I have been reading a little about air pruning lately and decided to give it a go DIY style.gr8 thread
What I have done is procured a PVC pipe and drilled many small holes in it.
I then made holes in the 5 gallon pot to put the two pipes through. Now when the roots hit the air and try to grow out in the PVC they will die causing them to branch laterally.
This will be repeated at the lower pipe also which is just above the bottom of the pot hopefully increasing soil dry time and nutrient uptake.
I also drilled 6 3/4 inch holes in the sides of the pot to allow soil drying and also side pot air pruning.
Enjoy
