Here is a shot of the 4x4 tray filled with empty 3gals I have. I have a few 2 gals also but it is going to be a full tray..

Looking good my friend

I'm sure they will love the extra space for roots once you transplant them

Keep us updated, all the best and...

Sweet smokes!

Thanks T. about how big should I let them get before I up pot them?

[Tommy G]

Cheers again my friend!

I wouldn't wait more than 2 or 3 days. I think as soon as possible they should be transplanted because they could start flowering soon and then you'd get small plants.

Keep it up, sweet smokes!

Hey Tommy, thanks for the tip bud!

First timer so I have no relative experience of root size to plant size or when to make such an up pot. So your advice is listened to, heard, and appreciated! This is why I enjoy ICMAG so much and the reason for my donation. Thanks sir.

Today, 6/19 day 27 from sow. 81.1F

Before:



After:








All the ladies went from a bit less than 1g to 3g pots. I put TW 1, 3, and 4 in 2g pots.

The tallest DC didn't like the more and got a bit sad the soonest but I think they will enjoy their new home.

My favorite are still the GP and CC since they are maturing more quickly than the others, just a few days or so ahead of the rest. DC are still the tallest about 12+ inches but the BC are getting there too.

All in all so far a nice group of girls for a first timer, lets hope I can keep them that way for another month.

Hi bro!
all lookin good, but i have a question, these pots will be your final pots?
It's better to make the transplant to their final pots because Autos strains stop growing on 3rd week, so be careful with that my friend
Good luck!

Cheers my friend!

You're welcome.

Yes, if they were not autos you should let the roots fill the "soil space" much more. But since they are autos and they will start flowering at any time very soon then you have them better in their final pots already. And I'm with Jaypp so I hope these are going to be the final pots. They would perform better in bigger pots but now you better leave them in the ones they are now.

Cheers and sweet smokes!

The 3gal and 2gal are the final pots so no more moving after this up pot.

I'm probably a bit behind on each step as I fumble my way thru this grow but I'm happy with how I'm doing so far.

Cheers again my friend!

2 / 3 gal pots are not bad, bigger would allow for better results but they will be fine with that size of pots.

Keep it up and sweet smokes!

6-22 80F Feeding 1.2 EC 2x day 8a/8p lights off/on 12noon/6p. ePap is set to 850W at about 34" from tallest plant. I'm not a plant but I don't feel the need to put this light much closer to the plants than where I'm at. I've brought them from 600 to 850W over the last week or so giving them sometimes a few hours of a higher setting to acclimate them.

The repotting seems to have had not too much of a bad effect on them. I'm not overly concerned but I think I will not use 1gal pots anymore and go more quickly to 2 and 3 gal final pots from the root riots. But I'm not sure.

I enjoyed them in the 1gals and I did not mind having to up pot them, but is it better to go from root riot directly to final pot with AF?

today:

TW #1, 3, and 4



TW #1 close up
