Hey!
I’m new to this forum and plants in general really so any help or advice would be great!

i decided to grow a lemon tree (I know probably not the right time of year) I waited for the seed to germinate before planting. I have a grow light for my other plant so used it on this also. It’s been 17 days from planting and it already has two little stems with leaves. I noticed a white root poking out of one of the drainage holes at the bottom.
Does this mean I need to repot so soon? I’m worried the root will dry out? Or I might damage the plant by taking it out of the pot? Again any advice would be great!
Thanks in advance :)

Hi welcome to the forums
This might help instead of me explaining it.

That’s brilliant thank you for the video didn’t mention the root though? Think I might wait a couple of weeks and try to repot it, it’s the root growing out of the bottom of the pot I’m worried about most haha!

its nice to see my plant seems to be going in the right direction though!

Thank you again!

I'd leave yours until you can see a lot of roots around inside of the pot, you'll easily see because the pot is a bit see through.
