That's what I thought also. Its not then possible to "sort" enough roots out so to say to get at least a decent potion of them out of the pots?
Never seen cleaned roots that grew in a medium before.

Next question would be.
If I do get roots growing into the water will the plant be at risk if I don't keep the water level insanelly high? I mean since a significally part of the rootsystem in my case will be cought in the pots supposedly.
