What to do? Be extra careful not to damage the roots and work around them (may not be feasible)? Cut them back? I greatly appreciate any advice!

Much respect to all!!:rastasmoke:

When i was using NFT and the roots grew over the edge of the table into the tank i simply redirected the roots back into the table very gently,
God i miss growing NFT its fucking awesome once you get it right.:jointsmile:
Greenthing Reviewed by Greenthing on . Roots in the Res. Hello cannacom people!! Much love and respect to this site and it's members. It's an incredible resource to have at your fingertips. My first post might as well be a question, so here we go... I have an NFT system consisting of 2X 2ft lengths of vinyl gutter, with the appropriate pvc plumbing leading to my 4 gallon res. I went with the NFT setup 5 years ago for my first grow. It went well, this is now my second hydro grow many moons later. Next time around, I will go with DWC buckets it Rating: 5
