they will hide themselves naturally...this is also why using clear containers is a bad idea...roots will form the soil to the pot, wait until you cut one down, and take the soil out.. you'll see..

just transplant to a bigger pot bro. you could end up w/ a root bound plant or something, that wouldnt be fun
