Re-pot during flowering?*PIC*

Quick question.

Ive had these 4 plants in flowering for about 5 weeks now (3-4 weeks in pic) and their in about 5 or 6 litre pots.

They have about 4-5 weeks left of flowering and the roots have started to appear out the bottom of the 5-6 litre pots.

Im thinking about repotting them into 20 litre much bigger pots.

Will repotting into bigger pots produce bigger buds in the end weeks?

Is it worth it to do or will it cause too much stress to the plant to repot half way through flowering? If i leave them in these small pots with the roots coming out the bottom will they get rootbound and cause them to produce smaller buds or some sort of distress?

I have no idea on the re-potting subject so all feedback is welcome hope you can help me. Thanks.​

I repotted one of mine during veg. It slowed it down a little, but she has alot more bud then the ones I did'nt repot.

With those plastic pots, you could just cut the bottoms off the pots and place them, pots and all, in a larger pot. I've heard that causes less stress. I'm not experienced enough to know how well that would work, but it's worth a shot.

I repotted in veg and in flower. its not hard if you do it right..

with plastic pots.. you wait till the dirt dries out.. not totally but not wet.. once this happens the soil ususally will stay form.

get your bigger pot and measure where you will place the plant in the soil. fill the bottom of the empty pot up with dirt til the plant itself's clump is just under the top of the new pot (about 2 -3 inches) you may want to put some rocks or marbles on the bottom so the dirt doesn't clog the drain holes

next roll the plastic pots with your hands until you see the dirt loosening from the sides.. grab the stem at the bottom and slowly pull it up.. the whole dirt/root clump shuld come right out.. place it in the new pot and add dirt to the sides and then the top.make sure there are NO air pockets.. so press the dirt down lightly then you neeed to do a watering.. add more then normal so the plastic pot creates a drainage .


also 5 weeks? look at mine... do the buds look about the same size?? mine just hit 5 weeks 3 days ago
