If you are growing in soil, just place pot and all in bigger bucket and put soil up above the roots.. If you are growing in organic substance, then do the same as above.. Don't try and replant as you could damage roots and the plant itself. If this helps let me know. If not let me know as well. Like critter said, don't panic..
hey i did it and now im just going to wait and see what happens thatnks guys peace i will post how it goes thx
Yeah, be cool about it. The roots of your plant are just doig their job + looking around for water and stuff. They will get the message and realise that there is nothing useful outside the pot and stop in a short while.
its not how big around it is but how much it holds (Hmm never thought id say that lolololol) i use 3 gal pots. but my plants are about 2ft tall at the end of it all...if u grow bigger...u might wanna try 5gal pots...but that sure does seem like a WHOLE lot of soil for ur plants if u are feeding them right. and jimbo is right...prob dont sweat it...as long as u are feeding the plants correct...they will be fine.
