Sound good, I'd be curious of others opinions on the roots.
I think in time we will find out. We can't check the pots anymore because he watered them heavily since testing them for dryness.

Are your pots heavy? They look over watered. If you used a half of a gallon of water to water one plant then I'd say they are definitely over watered.
Above I read 1/2 gal per plant, Is it actually a gallon between pots that hold 4 gallons of soil.?
I read your post wrong the 1st time, originally I thought it said 1 gallon for four pots.
How many pots is that gallon of water for?
How would he get runoff with such a small amount. If it went right through the soil the plant would happily absorb it back, but to me it looks like water was puddled their.
I'd also ask the op. How did so much water ended up in the tray. Does he always have water laying in the tray?
His probe test to me means nothing. If he had stuck it 4 inches into the drain hole I would have been interested in that. Doesn't matter now if he heavily watered them.
His saying the pot is light, That's means nothing to me. If he said it weighed XXX that would have meant something.
In a week or two, if he still has problems, we will find out for sure.
I edited this a couple of times to remove thing that might not be relevant if I misread how much water he uses.
