it might be a dumb question that i already know the answer to but my mama always said, better be safe then sorry; so if there are a few roots hanging out the bottom of my 6 in pot, would it be a good idea to move the plant to a bigger pot, cant put it in the ground cause i live in a community type thing, im growing it behind my fence in my patio

If the roots are popping out, you probably should have moved it sooner. How far out are they?

roots will come out the bottom of the pots if they are bound up its a good idea to transplant them.

it is advisable to repot in veg cycle only though

I'd go 3 gallon it should only get a couple feet plus if it gets to tall top it

Yea, like a few days BEFORE you had that thought. <g> Anytime you see roots coming out it is starting to becoming root-bound.
