I’ve had some great successes lately but not with my first grow with refurbished soil. First question for you fine helpful people: I can yank the main rootball with the best of them after a grow finishes, but how does one remove those feathery root tentacles that spread through the growing vessel, or do you not bother and just leave them to compost? Second question: can roots grow toward the top of the pot? I always thought top dressing mid grow was strictly to provide soil nutrients that get washed down throughout the medium when watering. But in the case of a grow that started off with less than ideal soil, if you top dress with good soil will the roots expand upward?
