noticed rootbound again, but these pretty ladys are going through a growth spurt! Decided to transplant one more time, to a 10 Gallon pot for 4 of our best. another 4 of them are stunted, so we are keeping them in the 5 gallons for the remainder of the season. Bugs have become a problem that we are trying to naturally remedy by bringing some big spiders on to them. Still have only been feeding them once a week. When we transplanted them we put some feed water into the soil, its been less than a week and we already see more roots coming out of the bottom. One transplant was not super successful as they were we kind of too big to transplant (we did it anyway) has left some of roots exposed on the top. The other 3 girls are liking their new homes just fine. Had to cull another one of the PK's this week too. The hairs started to turn brown so we figured its time. Had been flowering since around June 15th. They're almost as tall as us!

great work so far, and great catch with the pH. The pH fluctuations caused some visible issues to the leaves, careful with that as the bio roots will raise the pH quite a lot. Overtime it causes the soil to get too pH high which might snowball into bigger issues. Just a heads up but you clearly know what you're doing ! 🚀

thanks @CRiSPrGrow, that & I think we were feeding them a little early too. So much learning from our first season 😋

@@Ssomeguy, Hey sorry for the super late reply. Better late than never. All the pointers I'll say, take with a gain of salt because I am a new grower but have lots of experience with other plants. You transplant just slightly before the plant is root bound. You will notice roots coming out of the bottom which are seeking to go deeper; ultimately thickening the roots above, them making absorption greater, larger plant etc... Be careful you don't transplant to early. it should want to come as one. if it starts to crumble your soil structure is weak or the roots arent large enough yet. Which perhaps is why you've heard let them go a bit closer to root bound... whats an extra five days to let them get bigger if it means they have a healthy transplant. The roots will fill out in the new home. Ive found everything I've done this year as been has been hit or miss. I've been following a textbook found on amazon. The Cannabis Encyclopedia by Jorge Cervantes

@momNpop, Just a question relating to something I've encountered (not so much by choice). Any particular reason why you transplant AFTER they're root bound? I figured that would stunt them so usually I try to transplant a bit before they're root bound, but being inexperienced I've transplanted some plants only after they were root bound when I thought they wouldn't be just yet. I can't honestly say what the effects are, but I'd still imagine trying to avoid getting root bound to be better in general. Otherwise, they look great. I haven't had the PH for my soil tested even once. Ever. I guessed based on estimates of the composition, and I still got to the conclusion that the PH isn't necessarily that indicative. Like you could have a nice neutral PH or whatever and still be lacking stuff. PH is also VERY changeable at smaller scale. Shit, rain water PH here is 4.5 or so on average. Yet, my plants absolutely love it.
