Whats happening growers!
So i have her in this little pot for about 11days, how is it looking? Is she growing too slowly?
Anyway should i get her to a bigger home?
Some people say autos should be started in the 3 gal pot and thete for entire life cuz transplant shock the fuk up the auto girls, and some say they do better in small pots as in big pots they waste too much energy to develop roots.
Does she look old enough to be transplant or should I wait a bit more?
Btw is the big pot in the second big enough for her to be there for the rest of her life?

i would wait it looks too weak still.... every transplant can stress the plant and if not big or mateur enough it can die... you want it to atleast have two sets of stems (one on top and one below) before i transplant

Best way to not disrupt the plant or have any shock is to cut the excess away BEFORE the roots attach to it. Then GENTLTY put that mother fucker, into a bigger pot / container. Otherwise, if there is a root / stuck to the edge, and you break it away, you got shock, period.. but some of us mean to shock, to slow growth, most don't. I* rip my roots in half lol... I'm just keeping a strain alive though, if i were to do that, and transplant, then put into flower without healing time, shit is F-U-C-K-E-D!!!

Transplant that auto into final pot ASAP! You dont want to keep transplanting autos like you would photos. They have a much different tap root, which basically triggers flowering once it hits bottom

that makes it easier for me since where im from we count in liters :) . roughly 10-20 liters. Anything in between and the Auto will love it. Over 20L i would say is a waste indoors. Outdoor u can get bigger ofc :) . Hope this helps. Best regards

Time to transplant is when the largest leaves reach the outside rim of the pot. Reason is that the roots grow about the same speed as the leaves. So let the larger leaves tell you when the roots have grown out. When the leaves reach the rim you have to decide what kind of plant you want. If you want a shorter bushy plant you can leave her un-TP'd another week or 2. BigSteve.

Wow that's lot of useful knowledge thx so much! but some people suggest to transplant quicly because that autos tend to grow roots fairly quickly?
