Anyone else constantly check their plants drainage holes for roots trying to poke out so you can pop them back in before they’re too long? I know my plants aren’t root bound because most of them have clear pots, yet I still catch the roots sticking out the bottom 🤣 stay in your pot!!

My longest run away root is almost 3 feet! It made itself semi hydro 2 years ago because the outer pot has no drainage holes. I’m too embarrassed to post a picture. 🤪
