Leaves folded, white bumps and high roots. help!!

[chronicprnces]

I Need help quick...this is my first attempt at growing, my plant is about 6 weeks old it's in a 10" pot and was doing great but recently about 4 days ago my leaves started to fold in half downward not up like in mg deficiency and the stems are starting to droop. temp, humidity etc... are all fine. today i was checking my ph level, i started to stick the meter in the soil and heard breaking so i stopped pulled it out and stuck my finger in and felt a bunch of small roots not to far from the surface also i have white bumps going up the stem could those be roots or something else? and i was wondering if i should transplant to a bigger pot, if so to what size and how do i do it carefully? what could be cause my leaves/steams to do this all the sudden? thanks :hippy:

Bumps as you described are ok. It's new roots trying to poke out. Don't test your soil ph with with those janky home de-pot testers. They are inacurate. Test the soil ph by testing the water run-off. Also be more descriptive. Are your plants 6 week in veg or flower? If in veg turn your plant over and slip the pot off to check the roots. If there are a bunch your best bet is to transplant. Your description is to vague to tell. Transplanting is easy. Just get a bigger pot and when your plants soil is ready for water then transplant. If you water before the t-plant then that heavy wet soil can break apart causing torn roots. Got any pics? Droopage is caused by underwatering/overwatering, lockout, or rootbound.

Thanks for the reply and sorry I'm in the veg stage. some leaves are still healthy but more and more are starting to fold. I hope there is still a chance to save her. I am going to slip the pot off tonight when I get home from work and check the roots. here are some pics hope this helps.

I bet its root bound. Looks like a nice plant. A bigger pot will only help it IMO. Iv read 50 per above and below soil, you just need to let it get used to the pot before you see a bunch of new growth. Just re pot and do what you are doing :twocents:
