Roots escape from drain holes?

[red_ss]

hello..

i noticed that the roots of my plant in a 3g pot came out from the drain holes.. the plant is 13 inches tall? does that mean i shoul transplanet to bigger pot ? or its normal?

Thanks

At 13 inches a 3 gallon pot is loads of room. I wouldn't worry about it.

yea dont worry with the light will make the roots go back into the pot also

Thanks guys.. at which tall should i transplant ?

 

[lowrydergrower775]

id say when it starts getting over 3 feet if youre going high

Thanks lo775 & timdog4.. so i guess i dont need to transplant

 

[lowrydergrower775]

naw i wouldnt transplant right now unless you see a slow in growth or stunting you should be fine

ya ur good.
Roots first grow down to bottom....then they hit bottom and start forming around the base of the pot, and work they way back up to the top...

so im sure just a few root heads popped out the holes, but you should have plenty of room.

Hey there red_ss,

If you have a catch pan under the container you might want to consider watering from underneath. Those roots will **** up just what the plant and the soil need, and you will find that you have better control on the watering.
