Take a deep breathe....the sky is not falling.... Ggoooooooosssssffffrrrraaaabbbbbaaaaaa....
It's nothing to be worried about.... Your plant is just looking for some more room.... You can either trim the roots that shoot out....or transplant.... Clay pots are not the ones you want to use for ya meds....so I'd say transplant.... But it's totally up to you.... Also kinda depends on what stage your plant is in....

ROOT COMING OUT DRAIN HOLE IN MY CLAY POT
How long was it in the clay pot?
(p.s. - roots like to stick to clay pots) (Don't use clay pots for seedlings...IMO)
(it turns transplanting into brain surgery)....:jointsmile:

Try using the black plastic growers pots. Easy to transplant with, if you dont wanna flip it upside down to get the plant out then you can just cut the pot with a scissor no problem.
But i would stop using clay pots and transplant that bitch asap.

He just downsized because of seedling in a huge pot. He should let the plant recover from the transplant before performing another.
If you're soooo worried about it that you would disregard the sound advice already given in your other post...then do as you please... :thumbsup:
