Yea i have done it before on the 3rd week n on the 2nd week...didnt stress my plants..i think its more of the size of the kinda of problem i wouldnt transplant any plant bigger than 3-4ft
Yes, but it'll be a chore. First lay out a tarp, second, bamboo up any loose branches you think could be a problem towards the center of the rootball... less is better here, dont wanna fuck the roots, just keep the branches together.... Lay her down pot and all on her side on the tarp... you'll want to gently coax her sideways out.... you try and lift up and half your roots will stay in the bottom of the pot and you'll be stunted so bad you might as well harvest right then and make hash.... once you've got her out its the same thing really.... pack a few inches of EWC on the bottom of the new pot...turn the pot sideways, and as you slip the new pot on like a loose sock.... you stand her back up as she reaches the bottom.... fill in the sides with soil... water to compact the new loose soil, top her up, throw down your mulch, and you should be good to go.
I'm not sayin its easy... how far along she is matters... If she's late and well developed you may be better leaving her alone... If bud mass is little where you think the branches are safe... go for it.
good luck... and pics or it didnt happen.

Chopped one of gq main colas. The rest of the plant I'm gonna test out that 48 hours of darkness before chop theory and see for myself if it's beneficial or just hoopla. Last pic is the amazingly thc coated trim.

I've TP'd up to week 2 not counting first week of flip, and have seen others TP to week 4.
Both with positive results.
The lil scrog contraption is attached to the bucket. Its mobile. I would have vegged it some moe to fill out and train but not enough room. Im gonna make another one out of pvc. Its nothing more than a cradle u move around. This gq cut was just lokin like scrog. Idk. What i do know is the ewc slurry has pumped up the other girls. Nocturnal and gq#1 is really swellin up and looking much better.
The only reason i asked about the tp deal sg is i was thinking while the four big pot
s are going, a couple weeks from harvest i could slide some small pots in while the others finish. Try to close the rotation gap a lil.
Also i think im gonna try some ancient forest humus compost. Any feedback on this additive?

SG & Sea4....
Got a couple of questions for you two (?)....I've noticed from pic posted here (& the other place) that you are growing other plants in your grow rooms...Chili Peppers, etc...Can you do that? LOL
What I mean is I was told a long time ago that growing other species of veggies, herbs, fruits was a NO-NO
Other plants pests & diseases would cripple your crop....Now, my question is this: "Does it?" simple question, but I would like a detailed answer, please!? I have a big flowering room that I would like to grow produce AND weed in, and a herbal garden sounds like a great idea....
Comments? Ideas?? Sugestions???
~Sundance~ (From that Other Place...I'm NOT slummin', am I? LMFAO!!!

Twin wassup....
Been a minute since I have paid my respects to the fam..I feel like shit for it, just been having lots going on.
Lord, and fellow Minions
y is still at it, and wanted yall to know it. I burned the shit out of a few babies, and had to toss um, but that just gave me some time to focus on this chick.
Nocturnal topped 1, xplanted into a 7gl, and will be flipped on around the 20th.

Thank's SG1. Checked in a few times from when you started and enjoyed the ride. Speaking of rides happy you made it back from your trip. Done that a few times and driving in the snow is not always fun. Couldn't imagine a trailer in tow.Welcome to the minion thread
Guess the transplant gives the roots room to expand. Just moved a few to 15 gallon for more room. Usually add a thin layer of coco/light warrior to avoid transplant shock into super soil. Works like a charm.
Cheers

Keep Clean soil, sprout your own plants to avoid bringing in outside nastys. Ie clones from others out veg starts from nursery.
Chili peppers are great choice, compact and thrive in flower room environment. Thai, Indian jwala, and cayenne have done well for me and transition well outside for summer.
Tomatoes indeterminate cherry types are a good start. Train eight leads onto its cage (one every other vertical) and keep them pruned to your desired vertical height. I haven't tried to grow any that are larger than 2" diameter. If Idon't have a sativa going in the corner, than there's usually a tomato.
Herbs: thyme, oregano, chives, basil!, cilantro
. Fresh herbs are great for the home but can be ridiculous at the storeKale, heard people say it's slow indoors, I'm giving it a go, have two varieties about two weeks since germination, doing well setting themselves up.
Lettuce do great, arugula is a good choice to start, multiple cuttings, abundant with seeds of needed or let go that far.
I have two leaf lettuce (blond de cazard & rouge de Hivers) red romaine and spinach.
Starting a dwarf pomegranate tree inside, or at least trying to.
Nonetheless you can do all your starts inside for summer time and do multiple plantings.
Imagine you could grow a cucumber on your wall trellis, potato s in a wire cage, peanuts and asparagus as your flowering floor or have a bramble of berries in the corner...
I know you're questions weren't directed at me, but I love vegetable independence and better utilization of grow lights.

I feel like I'm slummin' at the other place... but I'm on like 12 forums...not all cannabis related... some of the ones I really prefer are much smaller though... for me its about constantly tryin to step my game up....
Grow things together? why the hell not? Shit...I move things outside, bring em back in... put em under my lights... I dont give a damn, but I have established predators on multiple levels of the soil food web, so ... I dont really have to care about things like that...
I also have clover, spearmint, barley, and something else as a living mulch starting (barley is winning LOL soon my pots'll look like a lawn....)
