is the water up to the top of the net pot? I'm pretty sure its not supposed to be that high.... it probably floated up.... Soak your pebbles better so they don't float/wiggle or use rockwool/grodan

hey at least your roots r white and healthy lol.. i'd put that dripper on a timer so you dont flood your bucket full of water. FYI hydroton floats

I'm not changing anything because the plant is growing so quickly and healthy, and I am not only using hydroton I use coco-coir and just rocks at the bottom and top. My bucket drips into another res underneath that growing chamber. This is a water farm.

Whatever floats your boat man. I've never seen roots grow out of the growing media on its own. My mothers are in Rockwool blocks and topped by hydroton. Using drain to waste drip system but I never seen my roots float to the top haha. I wonder what caused it lol

This is not a drain to waste drip system google water farm its a RDWC system (recirculating deep water culture).

My guess is the plant is growing down due to seed being planted upside down

Use tweezers and dig it out carefully

They are growing to the drip ring since you probably run that pump too much. Repeat cycle 15 on every 5 hours when lights are on is good for expanded clay pellets.

Im using coco-coir mostly all and running the pump 24/7 worked good so far this is the 3rd plant grown like this but first with roots popping thru. Not hurting the plant so not changing but ty for help.
