Do I remove the root ball from petunias for hanging baskets?

When I went to our local green house for some materials, I asked about what to transfer my petunias into (out of 6 pack cells) and she said they should go into 4 inch pots. So I did that. When I go to put up my hanging baskets, 4" root balls will occupy a lot of the basket. I also wanted to use a differtent potting soil mix in the basket from that of the 4" pots. The question is, can I remove a lot of the root ball from the 4" pot when filling the hanging basket? And how much? TIA
