Root system
Organomananswered grow question 4y 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.

Leaning Plant /Could really do with some advice on the lean if anyone has any? Should I dig her up very carefully before her root mass gets too big and try to straighten her out? Should I put a little gardening stick in there and tie the stem to it to support her?
See comment for more info.

Hurricane damage, any hope?So hurricane Ida came through and wrenched my poor Do-si-do over and did some damage to the roots. Stood her back up and supported but this morning she is hurting. Any advice on how to care for her in her time of need? Is what it is but still sad times. Winds were crazy.

Honey for root growth.Wondering if anyone has ever used honey to promote rooting when planting germinated (cracked) seeds.
Read that honey helps as a natural root enhancer. Only tried once so far as a test but seems not to hurt the seed, if dont do anything else. Wondering if anyone else does this?Roots. Other

White Mold at RootsI got some kind of white mold in the root area, I'm not sure what it is but I think I know what caused it, The reason is I was being kinda sloppy with letting the run off water sit under the plants for a day or two. Should I flush the plants now and cut them? And will it spread?

What size pot for final homeI am ready to transplant this girl. I have a 7 gallon plastic pot or a 30 gal tote from big lots I can drill holes in. Is the 30g overkill considering I only have 2-4 weeks until flower or will a increase in yield make it worth it? It has been in a 5g outdoors for 3 weeks.
