This is not an area I know or have read about.
The problem to me of removing the growing medium from around the roots is 2 fold:-
1) Disturbing the root mass will undoubtedly damage all the little hairs developing along the roots.
2) Stressing the tap root causing severe shock.
Weed plants IMO, especially autos, use tap root stress to trigger growth development.
You clearly enjoy playing with fire :-)
Nice to see someone try something new though.
Hopefully some of the Talks gurus will chime in with their knowledge.
Just my 2c
