root bound is when a plant has been growing in a pot and the root structure has outgrowen the space provided for the pot.
Not a good thing for where is the new growth supposto to go. not good for the water will run threw not allowing plant to eat. not good not good not good.
and easy to tell.... how much plant is hanging out of the bottem of the pot.
roots NEVER should be exposed to light
