I took a look at my plant, and i seen a sprout comming out to the far side of it. Im guessing that is a root that reached the top of the soil. Should i pull it out or just let it go?

you can go ahead and pull that as it isn't from your mj but rather just a weed.
soil often has tiny little seeds already in it, even store bought mixes.
btw, you should post a full shot of the pot and the plant so, when and if you
run into trouble, we can help you better.
that funny... you can never be too cautious
Also a lot of store bought soils have little black flies larva in them that will hatch when water is introduced to them. So if you see them anytime in the near future don't be alarmed as they do no harm to your plants. They are just annoying little f***ing things that can be killed with use of the karate chop and swinging your arms in a circular motion! LoL:D

if you top-dress your soil with diatomaceous earth on a regular basis you can
often prevent infestations before they take hold.
Thanks for all the info. Imma yank that thing out!!! by they way you guys ever heard of a strain called Phenomeno? i got it from a coffee shop in amsterdam, but cant find no info at all about it online.
Hello Love2Grow,
I would like to point out to you and anyone else reading this thread;
regardless how many plants you grow, whether 1 or more, you should buy and use sterilized grow media to avoid having pests problems. Or if you make your own media you should sterilize it before you use it. Very easy to do in an oven.
hey oldmac, i've read that sterlizing the soil kills all the beneficial bacteria and stuff. is this the case or no?
