Question about roots

Hello all,

First, thank you for all of the valuable information I learned on this forum.

Quick question about roots (DWC) - what is preferable, a lot of smaller thinner roots or bigger thicker roots?

In other words, which of the following is "healthier" (even though they don't look that healthy).

"Thinner" roots



"Thicker" roots



Thank you,

From my experience those "thinner roots" only come from modules like an ez cloner or a multi bucket type DWC setup.

Those "thicker roots" are usually what I am used to seeing when I veg in an RDWC for about a month in 13 gallon buckets

Thank you for clarify ramen, that makes sense.

more roots, more fruits. as long as they are healthy, the more the merrier.
