Hey friends! I have this polka dot plant, and I’ve had it maybe a month. I have it in a pretty small nursery pot because the root ball isn’t all that big. My question is why do the roots keep growing straight down, instead of wrapping around the pot? About a week ago, I pulled it out of the pot and raised it up a bit due to the roots poking out of the bottom. And a week later (today) there are more roots sticking out of the bottom. Being in a clear pot I am able to see the roots and they are just growing straight down. What would cause this? And what should I do? I feel going up in pot size won’t help the problem, and this isn’t enough roots to justify it. I do have it on a pebble tray, could this be why?
