Transplanted my Girls today

I been having problems with leaves yellowing and with the size of pots I(10&&7) gal I came to the conclusion that between the heat and drinking so much water and being rootbound this had to done, now with about 1and a half months of outdoor grow left I hope I didnt hurt anything , maybe get a couple more feet out of them :slight_smile: one of the girls I planted In Coco soil and transfered Into 707 soil , hope everything goes ok .

I strongly suggest you up pot now !!!
It is still time before they start full blown budding, they will reward you for it…
I have up poted all mine after some local growers visited my grow and suggested it…
Went to 50 and 65 gal smart pots…
The difference is mind blowing :wink::wink::wink:

Lol, thats a good problem to have…
I had 2 guys helping me with that…
If you up potting from smaller smart pots, you have no choice, than cut the bag with nife and ripp it off…
Iits worth to waste $ 10-20 in order to get a few oz of bud more …
Good luck brother !

Get some help and do it, they will love you :wink::wink::wink::wink:

Your on a bigger scale than I am. I cant believe these things got as big as they did. I got to do something though to get through the next month and a half. They are just started flowering

Yeah, it got bigger that I expected, I dont give them any special nutes or treatment, they just grow and grow…like a weed :wink:

must be some good soil at that way. Id love to just drop these in the ground for the rest of the way. But the soil around here isn’t worth growing corn .

I amend my soil heavily with rabitt manure at the beginning, then just water…
I will be top dressing with bat guano for the flowering period…
Thats a bare minimum…

Use smart pots or fabric pots , no root bound and plants get 2-4 times bigger. And your girls will thank you with more bud.

I did go to the 20 gal smart plants , my boy at the local hydro store recomended me to to 30 gal , but housing track here didnt let me due to the neighbors , its been a only a couple days now and see they are much more happy :slight_smile: , then I topped one of the smaller plants last night , being my first grow just want to try it out , being on the forum and all the info on the net If I rated my first year so far with this season I would put it at a 85, I had a couple of bumps through the year , but thats how we learn, well for me , thanks for help IGM comm.
