Hey guys!! I have a veg room and a flower room, now in my veg room i have 10 seedlings approx 17 days old, the other day i re potted 6 of the 10 into bigger pots however the other 4 have had to stay in 14 cm pots as i have no more room left, now ill be vegging these for 7 weeks, before moving them into the flower room, what will happen if i leave them in the small pots until flower were im able to transfer them into bigger pots? Is it pointless keeping them or? Its only my second grow so im still new to it all and i cant find any info about this on the net.

IMO you should veg long enough to fill your space. When it's full switch to 12/12. You don't need to do 6-7 weeks as a rule. You can switch to 12/12 now. Or, let them veg 3-4 weeks and flip. It's a tradeoff. More time, fewer plants. More plants, less time.

id say 7 weeks is too long to leave them in your " wilko ' pots ;)

7weeks is a long time and id say root bound

You should look at getting some 'superoots air pots' they prevent root bind and give the same results as a pot much bigger, give it a google
