If you mounted /honme as a file system on the pool of 700 GB and you didn't
used any attributes
of zfs to force /home to have *only* 200GB than you just have to remove the
attributes regarding the space.

ZFS grows automatically, you don't have to manually enlarge it.
The above is true if the filesystem is ZFS not UFS on top of ZFS.
