Transplanting problem

Hey guys haven’t done much transplanting at all and I usually start them in their final pots, but this time round I’m trying start small finish big. I was transplanting one of my smaller plants and when I went to drop her in half the medium dropped off from under taking a fair amount of roots with it, I know the plant should be okay and will suffer some slow down and abut of shock but is there any advice on making things a little easier on the little guy? Have watered with a healthy dose of rooting hormone for now in hope it promotes some rapid root growth to recover but if there is anything else you can recommend I’m all ears :)
