Well, the fate of the western world does not rest on me draft, just some thoughts I'm putting together. I've started it and as thoughts evolve I'll finally finish it and post the ditty. Thanks for the kind words.

I never though about roots "spinning out" being a problem, but makes some sense when compared to a root ball which has not "spun out".


Yep. The whole drill is for roots to explore as much as soil as possible for maximum uptake of water and minerals. Root spinout is not good. There are ways to address the problem both chemically (copper hydroxide root tip pruning paints) or by mechanical means - scoring when upcanning, using air pruning type pots etc.

Here is one way to address root spinout using Griffin's Spin-out paint...a grow journal.
Spin-Out for chemical root pruning
