ROOTS COMING OUT THE BOTTOM DOES NOT MEAN THE PLANT IS ROOTBOUND! ive seen tap roots come out the drainage holes 2 days after a repot. when the plant growth slows and the new branches seem to be growing right next to the main stem instead of spreading out these are signs of being rootbound as well as the lower growth dying off in extreme cases and also needing to water every day. don't worry about roots coming out the bottom that means nothing imo.

also get the plants out of the pots without holes or you're gonna end up killing them really quick!

Yeah well I've been thinking about my growing and everything and the roots are something that I've been concerned about and I just realized why I wouldnt put a seedling in a bigger pot lol...anyways I was wondering is there anyway to tell if my roots are too big for the pot I have it in?
