It’s fine. Means you got some strong roots for one, and it will just air prune the roots and cause them to grow stronger within the pot. No worries!

Tap root surfacedHello
I have zero experience in growing cannabis. I germinated 2 autoflowers and both popped but, one tap root grew upwards. As soon as I noticed it I reposition it as carefully and easily as possible.Being an autoflower does it even have a chance. Posted pic on diary.

The base of the trunk is wobbly but still attached deep down.
I've packed soil around the base of the trunk to reinforce.

Seedling with mold in drainage Holes :(Hello,
Im starting my seedlings and just noticed some white fuzzy mold on the drainage holes of the pot (probably because overwattering). The plants look fine but they're still very young (just one set of good leaves). Should I worry? What can I do to avoid loosing my plants?Roots. Other
