Roots appearing through soil???

[wendall85]

Hey,

This is my 2nd grow under CFL. My plant (cheese, fem) has just started flowering and i have noticed that roots are appearing through the soil. As this is my 2nd grow, I've never seen this before and got me a bit worried. Could it be that the plant pot is to small?? Any thoughts would be helpful cos i have no idea!!

I'm growing outdoors when I noticed roots coming through the top of the soil , I took someone's advice to repot , I'm glad I did because when I lifted the plant I could'nt see any soil it was just roots , so it might be worth repotting just in case.

It shouldn't be that difficult my plant is 4 ft and I was stressed as hell pulling it out of the pot.

Good Luck.

looking good :)

There's alot more ppl with more knowledge than me on here but from I know there's usually two reasons for that..
1st, she needs repotting. If she's root bound they've got nowhere to go but up

or..

she may be getting a bit over watered.. the roots drowning further down in the soil and they're trying to breathe. but she looks pretty mint so my guess is a repot.

Hope this helps.. cheers

Thanks for the advice....placed the plant in a larger pot, definitely needed it. I used compost (which was wet) to fill the rest of the larger pot....should i hold off feeding the plant nutrients until the compost has dried off?

Thanks again:)
