Onc Lemon Heart 'Baby Face'. Repot now???

Sheila

I don't seem to do well with the oncidium genera, but I keep trying! I bought this plant last summer, very overgrown, coming way out of the pot. I just plopped it into a larger clay pot so it wouldn't keep falling over. I wanted the huge spike to finish developing it's buds. It never really bloomed well. Eventually cut off the spike, but due to my health issues wasn't able to do a repot.

Question...can I repot now or should I wait for Spring? It's in tightly packed spag and roots look rotted all along the outside of the rootball. Lots of roots outside the pot seem dead too....not mushy, but the velamen pulls off the actual root quite easily. I would really like to be successful with this oncidium.
TIA Sheila
