well this is a 3 gallon pot and the plant is 10 inches.......day 36 in veg.

Put it in a larger container with more soil. Or let those roots get air pruned and don't worry about it.

Dude it's normal not a worry,keep the rep.

They will not grow out of there. Once they hit the air they will die and stop - this is air pruning. Like Taint said, don't sorry about it.

what about bonsai it, as in take it out of the pot, take a steak knife or knife and cut alone the sides of the pot maybe less than 1/2" to 1/4", place back into the container with fresh soil along the sides. allowing the roots to grow again into the new medium. also i believe i read that root tips are inactive? as in they aren't used in absorption of nutes

"let it be, let it beee, let it be, let it be.... Whispering words of wisdommm... Let it beeee"

keep in mind root growth slows down once you flower....
(and really, if this is your worst problem you're doing really well.)

I have the same thing but thats what I want I also have my
babies on 3gal pots on top of 5gal buckets, wich I drilled holes on the lower
part on of the pots so the roots could come out and make it a big root system.
you can try the same thing but if not let the roots run free.

LOL this happens in nature all the time, worst thing that can happen from this is that the protruding roots will die. But this is an indication to transplant into a bigger pot!

dude. your fine.

roots coming out the bottom is normal. That just means the roots have grown to the bottom of the pot, which is good. Do you expect them to never grow to the bottom? Starting to get it now?

They will start coming out, then the plant will realize whats going on, and the roots will keep growing in other places

dont tape it up...def. put it in a bigger pot....that plants got potential

Don't tape anything, leave it alone if you are not going to transplant. This is normal for all growing pots, the roots will be air-pruned when they grow out of the pot and will not cause any problems.
