I used two buckets and transferred the plant between the buckets so I could drain all the access dirt and pebbles off the roots. Didnt get all the dirt but I feel that I would have had to kill the plant to get all the dirt off.
It looks good, but I put most of the root clump is near the surface...Should I take all the hydroton clay pellets out and reset the roots or could this potentially kill the plant since I just sat near the sink ruffing its roots to get dirt off?
I was gentle Im just wondering how much stress it can take.
plant is probably a few weeks old and had a reasonably big root system...
to restate i went from soil to a bucket with a air pump and feeder.
The net/ cup thing is fillled with hydroton clay pellets but I accidentally put most of the roots near the surface of the pelllets. when it gets bigger, will these roots try to get bigger and stunt growth???
