Root system

Sup3rNov4started grow question 3 years ago

Can anyone tell me if this a healthy root system or was the 50ltr pot to small? Also is that discolouration the start of root rot?

Organomananswered grow question 3 years ago

Perfectly healthy root system with no root rot at all and is exactly what I would expect to see in my pots after harvest. Root rot will have mushy roots. 50 litre pots are a great size, only growing directly in the ground will allow unimpeded growth. Congratulations on asking the question, most people quickly lose interest once they harvest their plants and I thought I was the only one to bother with checking the root system after harvest and have been doing so for 25+ years, just to gauge how the plants coped with the pot sizes I have used/tried. Cheers, Organoman.

I've packed soil around the base of the trunk to reinforce. I'm about 2 weeks from chop and want to know if it's worth harvesting now or if plant/yield will be fine?

White mold?My smart pot is turning white at the bottom. There also appears to be roots trying to pop through. I put rocks between the pot and plate for air. I have one blade of grass and a tiny weed popping up, so conditions at the top of the pot are okay. Should be worried?

What's happening with this seedling?Hey guys! So, I'm having some doubts with one of my seeds, as it looks like it sprouted upside down. Can't see any cotyledones, or even signs of the seed, that's what make me believe it's upside down. Any ideas? RH in the tent has been quite low, around 15/20%. thanks!

Hey guys! started week 5! She’s looking great, nice and healthy. I’m concerned with the amount of roots growing out the bottom of the pot, should I be worried about this? Or would this be where the roots self prune and this encourages more root growth within the pot? Thanks!

Should I repot at day 18?Should I repot to a pot of 15-20l? I'm kinda regretting I planted it in a pot with +-4l of soil. I want to plant her out in full ground around week 5 when the belgian weather starts getting milder, and I'm not sure if it's worth repotting now for another 2-3w, given the risk.
