You really don't want to transplant them from what I understand. It can stunt them. Even if it only stunts them a few days that can be huge. 8 liters is a little over 2 gallons, so it should be good imo.

High there ,Growing 1 nl fem af in rdwc with mixed results.Seeds are from nirvana. Using an Apache 120 LED and dr 40" x 40" tent.Using Organic Advanced nutrients ,ph corrected to mid 5.s as needed. Doing rez changes when ph tanks.Usually about 1 or more weeks but not much longer than a week most times. Maybe i was a bit to frivolous with the nutes ,but mostly looking good. Questions are : Started from seed around Oct 21,2010.Vegged @ 22/2 lights for maybe 8-10 weeks.Saw the signs of female pistils and cut back on lights slowly to 18/6 now to hopefully expedite the budding phase. Switched to bloom nutes about 2 weeks now. Not much in the budding dept. but she seems to be trying to flower up. Do i really need to switch to 12/12 to push the flowers? Read here ,18/6 or 20/4 will be the best for yeild so I'm grasping here for the truth. Are these really AFs or maybe semi Autos? Please give me a bit of council here. Recirc.System seems to be doing the job intended and ph drops most days with increase in ppms also,so seems as if using more h2o than nutes. Only using about 1/4 to1/8 streangth nutes as full strength seemed too strong.My girl seems to get a mag deficiency about every week. Canoeing leaves with yellowing edges.Added more nutes( advanced iguana juice bloom now, earlier iguana juice grow) to supplement this alleged def.and seemed to do nothing.Must I get some Cal-mag or something? I really want to remain organic so what do i need to do?Plant looks perfect in every other way. Short,thick and loaded with leaves,no stretch,massive roots(white).o yeah, using label rates of voodoo juice for roots 1st and 2nd week of bloom. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Talk to me:leaf:

In fact i want to transplant but i'm still hesitatin , don't want too small yields ,there's 20 days to harvest at least and main colas are not formed yet, i might transplant one or two to see the respond and go on.

btw does root production slow down in flowering or not?

hey guys how much taller do autos get when thy go in to flowering i got a sweet seeds fast bud and i just showed sex to day and its only 2 incs tall helpp

It's pretty safe to assume that a plant will roughly double in size during the flowering stretch with a bit more growth after that. Some autos just stay really really small. A four to six inch tall auto wouldn't be unheard of.

Cfls would be the easiest and cheapest way to go with a space that small. I have a small space myself 4'x3'x3'. As for how many you could fit, well that depends on the strain.

I didn't weigh it all together because I had been plucking at it for a couple of days. I can say that the top was 52 gr. It surprised me how much it still filled the box after being molested and mutilated for my pleasure the past few days. I will give an accurate weight on the next one as I have been saving her untouched and for a very special evening together.
