SoCal,

I have a wet saw that I use. I use the saw to cut pavers (or tile). This is the best way.

Another option is to use a concrete saw blade in your circular saw, lots of dust, wear a mask. It you use a circular saw it is best to have a helper to spray small amounts of water where blade meets pot. Becareful not to jolt yourself. Spray bottle with nozzle on jet works best. Use small amounts of water, stand on dry wood. Or best just rent/borrow a wet saw.

If you can get the use of a wet saw you can cut up the bottom leftovers. Put some landscape block adhesive and make bridges to hold the pot firmly in place before filling with soil and plants. A pot stacked in a pot is unstable, hard to move, easy to knock over. Best to figure out a structure and glue it together.
