This is my first grow my seeds were ment to be blueberry af. I grew under 600hps for 6 weeks from seed still nothing switched to 12/12 on the 2nd of november. That was the 6th week now roots are coming out my pots is repotting a must and will it effect my plant?

no not a must, but you can put what ever media yu are using in a bigger pot/ or cheap plastic bowl only on the bottom and let the roots grow in them out the bottom of your pots. hope that make sence

They do look a hair cramped but very healthy so I'd say just watch them and see how they flower out. If the pots are 3g+ you should be ok, if they are smaller maybe consider re-potting. ^^^ Or like WAC said maybe just double pot them. =)

if your going to repot do it now because tous roots will get bigger and be hard not to damage when repotting

I'd go with the transplant, if it were me. It'll minimize the bloom stretch, plus, kept them fed longer, keeping deficiencies to a minimum. Those are good things, when flowering. Agreed? :wink:

I would transplant.
They should have about zero water retention in these pots.

It looks to me like soil. If so - you'll have to water much less often with bigger pots and your plants should develop some more roots, which they don't have the space for right now.

If its not soil its not THAT critical, but I would do the same anyways.

like u im new at bud growin but i do kno a thing or two bout plants. the more roots u have the more nutrients ur plant will absorb so i also recommend repottin. Be careful u need to either cut off or push the roots back in the pot so as not to destroy the rootball too much. but either way goodluck and have fun growin!!

Try to get square pots as they will use your available space much more efficiently.

why did you change to 12\12 if its a autoflowering strain?

as for the rootball managing while transplanting - it should be a firm ball by now and no roots should be damaged by the move.
