Roots poking through bottom of pot.

Luv2Growstarted grow question 4 years ago

I just noticed yesterday that I’m starting to have a significant amount of roots shooting through the bottom of the pot. This far into the grow, would you recommend transplanting into a 5 gallon fabric or you think she’ll be ok?

I wouldn't transplant an auto this far into the grow, you will have a significant reduction in yield. When growing in fabric pots the roots will air prune once they break through the pot material and force the plant to send out new roots laterally, so you won't get root bound. Long story short, she'll be fine just the way she is. Happy growing.

No, I wouldn’t transplant after you are into flowering. The roots slow with growth as the plant does as flower progresses. Unless you are having to water every day or multiple times a day at this point it is totally within what you’d want. I want to be watering every day by the last 2 weeks for fast uptake of final nutrients and fast flushing. So I adjust container size for plant size I want and what is standard for the specific genetics. Happy Growing!

Mold between the pots and on the soil's surface, should I be worried ?So my pots are very close to one another so they can't breathe enough but my space is quite limited and in veg maybe there was not enough extraction.

Why plants are growing differently Same strain different growth rates and patterns. One plant is shorter and wider while the other plant is taller. Basically the same amount of leaves. The shorter and wider plant was repotted a week sooner in cycle. Could that be the reason? Or genetics?
