root problems

[golas12346]

my plants roots start to hang out through the bottom of the pot and i cant transplant my plants to other/bigger pots. What is going to happen ? Becouse i have never faced this problem. My plants going to stop grow in length/width since there is no more space for roots to develop or its going to couse so more damage like dead leaves or undeveloped buds ?

Are you in soil? If so they only hit the air then die back. Unless they are sitting in a wet tray or something that is keeping the emerging roots wet they will die off. Hurts nothing

thanks for quick replay ;] then those "extra" roots should die off since they are sitting in the water most of the time. Yuo saved me alot of nervous

You never answered my question but if you are in soil and in pots they should not sit in water. Drain the trays or raise the pots out of the water.

And they won't die off because they are in water, they are growing there in the first place because you have them in water. They will die when the bottom of the pots dry out.

You don't want to let roots grow outside the put. They will eventually die and your wasting root growth that should be inside the pot.

both plants are in soil

WTF?

Can't really tell from the pictures but where the hell is the moisture coming from these roots are developing in? If this is a regular soil grow I would snip the roots and make sure the pots are sitting on a dry base, not in water.
