Default Grapefruit

I have a 2' high grapefruit plant in my kitchen that I grew from a
germinating seed in a fruit.
It has stalled at that height and new growth is stunted so I suppose that
that is the effect of being pot-bound.
However, the main query that I have concerns a clear, resinous-looking
substance being exuded from various points on the stems.
Is this a sign of stress?
