Hi there,

What is the issue about?
Search engines may not fully acquire the content on a page if the page contains a lot of code. Extraneous code can push the content down in the page source making it harder for a search engine crawler to get to. A soft limit of 125 KB is used for guidance to ensure all content & links are available in the page source to be cached by the crawler. This basically means that if the page size is too big, a search engine may not be able to get all of the content or may end up not fully caching it.

How to fix?
Ensure that the page source does not contain large amounts of CSS or code at the top of the page. Consider moving code and styles into separate files.

Reading this, if the issue is related to large amounts of code in the head of your site, then that would be your problem.
If I Right Click > Inspect the your site and view the source code you have a LOT of code being added inline by WP Meteor and WP Rocket ( ? Critical CSS ).

Those optimizations are moving 1000s of lines of code to an inline position that come before any content.
