Is it time for transplant?

Frisian Duck, I have two that are this size - Topped them a few days ago. Have they outgrown their pot?

(No idea why the lower leaves look a tad unhappy)

All The leaves hanging down,Suggest you water when the pot feels light, and this should solve your hanging leaves problem. :leaf:

Good eye! That is exactly something I have been struggling with. Being afraid of underwatering. But I will let it dry out more and transplant tomorrow.
 
I would transplant at least double the size … Nothing fancy just a good complete soil ( ocean forest / Recipe 420 / Dr. Earth etc. )

As these brands are pretty nute dense and all you got to is water it.

Medium is probably tapping out. PLUS you can have more room to stake that main stem up ( support ).

You can remove these leaves too.

Curious as to how the transplant went. What size container did you use?

The transplant went fine, transplanted into a 5-gallon and the other into a 3-gallon smartpot. Those were the ones I had at hand! Used mycorrhizal powder on both rootballs.

Gotcha, thank you! The pots are more than double so should be good. I got a decent complete soil, I don't have access to the fancy American brands, but it's Biobizz light, perlite, like 10% coco I had leftover, and an amendment called Plagron Supermix, it's worm castings, seabird guano and minerals etc. All the plants are loving it at least.

I will remove those leaves, they are on my to-do list. I just thought I'd wait a little to let them get over the transplant stress! :) Thanks!

I will post some pictures tomorrow if I remember. I should really make a grow journal at this point. I got 6 different (Way too many) plants going at the moment.
