Transplant question for outdoors

MrTkillastarted grow question 3 years ago
I have 4 plants in 1 gallon pots right now outdoors,I was wondering how late I can transplant them, I have 20gal pots for final pot and I’m currently about to make my super soil tomorrow, I need at least 3 weeks for it to cook. Can I wait to transplant them or will it hurt growth

Just leave them until you are ready to transplant. The less stress they go through, the better. No matter how careful you are, each time you transplant, the plants suffer a bit, meaning they are just as well to stay as is, rather than double handling/transplanting, which could slow growth more than if you had just left them as they are now. You can still transplant up until about the second week of flowering, so you still have plenty of time to wait for the soil to "cook". Personally, I like to have all my soil mixes made up already even before I plant any seeds, this way you don't have to wait for any "cooking" to occur. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Hey mate, yes I'd be inclined to do that. Transplanting can cause a little stress but I'd dome really carefully it will be minimal. I'd say the benefit of the extra root room will help more than the negatives it brings. Hope this helps 🙂

Do you think if I transferred them to 3 gal pots for a couple weeks that would help

Hey mate, The sooner you can get them in the larger pots the better. They are looking like they are ready for a bigger pot now. The good thing is you've got them in fabric pots so the will be air pruned, limiting them from becoming root bound. It will slow growth a little as the are going to fill that pot and if they were in the other the roots could continue to grow. But if theres nothing that you can do, dont stress about it. I'm sure you will still get a great harvest. Hope this helps 🙂
