    Default Roots grown out bottom of pot

    Hi guys just need a bit of advice if anyone can help I got a soil grow going on in a 15 litre pot it's nearly 9 week old nearly in 3rd week of flower, it's from sense seeds a fem super skunk and it's looking well and I've had no problems on this grow apart from fungas gnats, anyway I noticed today after watering the roots have grown outside bottom of pot and there's loads about 5/6 inch long, there's no way I can repot into a bigger pot or can I at 3 week flower??

    Just set it inside of A bigger pot, with A small amount of soil in the other pot, maybe about 1/3 full. JMO

    Do you have any water sitting underneath your pots? Mine done this a few times reaching down for a drink in my drip trays...
    They eventually broke off from moving the pots and not affect to the plants.

    Not a problem . As long as them roots arent sitting in run off youll be good . Theyll prune themselves . But if they sit in run off theyll suck up whatever is in there and fuck things up

    oldish post but rip em off.. cant do anything to it. Iv done bonsai methods bfore when i put something into a bigger pot then regretted it 2 weeks later.. i cut the roots down to fit a smaller pot and put it in that.. its got a fat as hell branch and loads of colas awaiting a good time to repot it and flip.. my only concern was the reson i pulled it... the mother was a female self impreg (unless some pollen blew in im sure 3 people on my street alone do this.. and one after the bloody post man delivered my seeds to wrong door and they denyed it now they grow!! )!... i found it growing in the medium on chopping a crop... have to keep a strict eye on it and have a back up plant when i use it.

    AGAINST the legalization of cannabis.. the business is already set up do you want to work for some big company at minimum wage?

    decriminalization is all we need.ask an American.. Where now they pay thc tax and can't afford enough Meds plus the card ruins most insurance ..no rant this is factual
