Yo gabrielegabriele! That's a tight schedule if you have to move in July. To maximize growth right now, the first thing you absolutely must do is get those three seedlings into their own separate pots immediately. Having them all in one container is a recipe for disaster because their roots will tangle up, and they'll start fighting for nutrients and space, which will stunt them big time. Since you're on a clock, you want to give them as much high-quality light as possible (18 to 24 hours a day) and keep the airflow moving so they grow strong stems. If they are photoperiod plants, you'll have to keep them small enough to move easily, but if they are autos, they'll be well into flowering by late July anyway. Just make sure to use a good light potting mix and don't overwater them while they're still this small. Separate them now, give them their own space, and they'll explode in growth over the next few weeks. Happy Growing, Growmie!

Hello Gabriele,To prevent ''competition'' between plants, it is recommended not to germinate and grow them in the same container. That's the first thing to begin your journey to ''maximise'' the growth. You may try to separate them already, but I'm afraid it's either too early or too late to do it now. So if you've other seeds, I'd restart the grow with new seeds. Otherwise try to gently remove two of them and plant in other containers, without root damage it seems difficult. Good luck and enjoy growing.

You are still very early so you can set everything up correctly now and because autos grow fast every day matters, give them 18–20 hours of light per day and keep the light at the right distance to avoid stretching, put them in their final pots as soon as possible using 10–15L pots to maximize root growth and avoid multiple transplants to reduce stress, start light feeding after week 2 and increase nutrients slowly while keeping pH between 6.0 and 6.5, begin low stress training early by gently bending the main stem to open the plant and create more bud sites, do not top or heavily prune them because autos do not recover well from stress, water properly by letting the top soil dry slightly before watering again, keep temperature around 22–26°C and humidity around 55–65% now and lower it in flowering, ensure good airflow with a fan, and focus on consistency and plant health because with your timeline it’s better to aim for dense and healthy buds rather than big plants.

These things are already doomed to fall short of potential. Small pot with competing roots. Poor drainage qualities - even if 'magical' coco coir, still need 33% of volume perlite or similar. As far as moving... common sense... simply setup your grow area as quickly as possible once you move. LOL, seems obvious. Sounds like you may be able to harvest before you move, or if it's a photoperiod, ensure it happens more times than not. If not an autoflower, switch to 12/12 about 10 weeks before you would be burdened during your moving process. If it's an autoflower, keep it in a tiny pot for 3 plants and it might induce flower sooner. in the future -- one plant per pot and plan better. While the duration is not exactly known, you know it takes at least 3-4 months to grow a plant. Simply don't paint yourself into an inconvenient corner

Hey. It's going to be just fine. Absolute urgency: Separate them ​Separate them immediately into individual pots. ​Right now, the three roots are going to intertwine and they'll be fighting for nutrients, which will completely halt their growth. ​The longer you wait, the riskier the operation will be for the plants' survival. ​2. Fix the "stretching" ​Your plants are way too tall and thin for their age; they're desperately reaching for light. ​You need to lower your lamp or increase the light intensity so the stems become sturdier. ​Repotting tip: When you separate them, you should bury the stem in the soil up to the first small round leaves (the cotyledons). This will allow the plant to create new roots along the buried stem and not collapse. ​3. Strategy for July (Timing) ​With a move at the end of July, you have about 16 to 17 weeks ahead of you. That's perfect; follow this plan: ​April: Intensive growth phase. You should aim for well-bushy plants. ​Early May: Mandatory switch to flowering (12 hours of light / 12 hours of darkness). ​May to mid-July: Flowering phase (about 8-10 weeks depending on the strain). ​Mid-July: Harvest and start drying just before loading the truck! ​4. Maximize yield: Training (LST) ​If you want a lot of flowers in this timeframe, you shouldn't let them grow "Christmas tree" style. ​As soon as they have 4 or 5 nodes, you should start gently bending the main stem down with string. This will force all the lower branches to rise up and become main colas. ​In summary: If you don't separate them today and fix the light issue, you will have almost nothing to harvest in July. This is where it all counts! I hope I could help you. Have a good evening!

At this stage give them some roots enhancers, like mycorrhizae and trichoderma fungus, humic and fulvic acids, to maximize the growth

Hi, pot your girls into three separate pots right away, otherwise you'll have big problems with the roots. I always use 3-4 liter pots at the beginning and then 12 liter pots. Good luck 🍀
