Scrappy-doo
Due to circumstances I am in a situation where I will be splitting the buds from a particular plant with a fellow grower.
It's his plant, in a small soil container, and will be transplanted into a larger container of coco as that is my medium.
I suggested transplanting it and letting sit for a week or 2 so the roots can grow into the new container before it goes into flower.
He wants to transplant and then flower immediately.
An argument followed.
My argument is that if you flower it immediately the plant will be trying to do 2 things at once, grow roots and grow in size, and it will end up smaller with less yield.
He says he believes that it will grow larger his way. Didn't really give me any reasoning as to why he thinks that, but says I need to have faith in him as a grower cause he knows what he's doing.
He's real stubborn and I didn't want to argue so I said we'll have to agree to disagree on that, but fine we'll do it your way.
From everything I've read and experienced with growing, flowering immediately after transplanting makes no sense, but hey I'm willing to be wrong here. I just want to get the most possible out of this girl.
I'm hoping if I am correct, then the opinions of some respected growers he may know on here can help persuade him to change his mind on this.
So please weigh in...
