4 weeks into flower, should I transplant to bigger pot??

[kostonn760]

Im 4-1/2 weeks of 12/12 and 3 weeks of actual flowering. She's in a 2-1/2 gallon pot right now, and I was thinking of transplanting her to a 3 gallon or 3-1/2 gallon. I was gonna get one of the air bag pots that are basically like a sac you fill with soil. Is it too late to be transplanting? Will it even get shocked? I'm not in too much of a rush to harvest so a few days of shock isn't a big deal.

Other than that, how do my plants look? - The pictures taken were about 1 week ago, and the last picture is of her a while back but it's just a better shot at what pot she's in. I'll post more on Monday which will be 5 weeks of 12/12.

Should have transplanted into what you were going to finish in before you started flowering. But if you do transplant, throw that bitch into a 5 gallon and she will love it.

Ya I figure I have about a month left maybe a bit less so that's plenty of time to grow into it. And if I don't I feel that it would have been a month of better growth wasted. Just didn't know if it would really fuck something up.

BTW Anyone have any fucking idea what strain this is?

 

[Auzzie07]

It's impossible to identify strains.

Maybe not exact but it could look like something.

what I would do is get the pot u wanna transplant into fill with soil mix cut the bottom off the pot its in now (carefully) and put the potted plant on top that way you get double pot i.e more space for roots with minimal shock

That sounds like a really good idea.

This is good advice. I was going to say you should go ahead and just be real careful to not mess up the transplant and most likely you wont experience any noticeable shock(mine never do after transplanting, be it during flower or during veg), but this removes any chance what so ever of anything going wrong for you because chances are if something were to go wrong it would probally be a pretty big deal, like half the root system ripping off or something pretty bad like that, so better safe than sorry

i'd leave it in the same pot. Seams a bit big and late to be messing with. And i doubt very much there would be a grate difference, after all the plant will not be growing much more in size now only producing buds. Next time increase the pot size will still in veg .

Great advice, I'll probably do that instead if I end up doing it. Looking at the pot I'm in now and then the pictures before (the size she's at), would it even be worth it? The pot does seem big enough but I heard that the rule of thumb is "whatever is going on above the soil is usually the case below the soil" And going by that she would have outgrown it by now...

How much longer do you guys think I have in flower? About a month?

bigger root systems= the bigger the buds they can make and support ,so their will be a difference.

I would just leave it be. Your plants not that big. I grow in 2.5 gallon pots and never get root bound.

It def. looks like a indica! The wide leafs and short stature.
