I plan on starting seedlings in 16oz party cups and then from there going into 1 gallon containers
then into 5gal. to finish them out.
on average how long does it take for the roots to fill in using the 1gal pot, the from the 1gal to fill in a 5 gallon container?
I see some people upsizing into larger containers and then in a week flowering, sometimes sooner.
I would think the roots take longer than 7 days to fill in, I may be wrong,...
so the plant is trying to grow more roots and at the same time expending energy to flower.
this doesn't seems to be good energy management
for the plant imo.
seems like it would be better to have the roots filled out to the container size,.. then initiate flowering
