i posted this in a different thread, https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/164048-roots-coming-out-drainage-holes.html , then thought i better throw it out to all and see what is said... ![Big Joint :bigjoint: :bigjoint:](/styles/smilies/smoking.gif)
i'll give ya some advice i learned from being hired to do......
i wuz only doing what they wanted done and it worked!
so say as you wish to all but here it is....
it's also used in greenhouses for everything everyware....
i got hired to help unclog a big ass hydro bucket system years ago (in a warehouse).....
what they wanted us to do wuz one person lift the inside bucket up a few feet.....
the second person took a macheti and cut away all the roots flush to the bottom of the first bucket....
WOW EH!
but i will say, i got hired to do few more things with that crop and harvest it too....
it did nothing but stimulate the roots! especially in veg stage!
say what you want but i will also tell ya what the greenhouses all over the world do with ANY kinda plant they use.....
when transplanting to a different pot or medieum, ALWAYS score the roots on the bottom and side with a blade to stimulate new root growth!.....
WHY?
because the plant eats thro it roots, so when it's feeder lines are cut and stressed it sends new roots out elseware to get it's food!
dooh.....what have we been led to believe!? simple, only do it once and it will encourage new growth...... do it more and it won't be happy...
SO..... Thats my personal knowledge from working in greenhouses and growin green.... and i personally do it too, and it works fine....
you must respect those white roots but don't fear them, you can manipulate them too!
