@momNpop, Super healthy, I am really liking the structure of those plants!

@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.

@@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.
