Ive got an auto road runner germinating now. I have an organic soil that I've mixed about a month ago and has been sitting in a 2.5 gallon pot as well. I've read a lot that it is best to plant autos straight in the final pot, but would I be putting her at risk for nute burn in doing so?
Straight in organic soil?

if organic soil isnt mixed too hot would have been fine you can always tier your smaller container into larger before tap hits bottom thats when it sends signal ti limit growth size of plant. best of luck to you

I transplant my auto 3 times, no stress, bounced right back. Next time I'll just plant in a 3 gallon airpot.
Yeah my last auto I don't think I let it get root bound enough before I transferred so it got a little stress from that plus i had the lights too close so some bottom leaves started frying. It bounced back nicely since then so this time around I'm just going to be more careful.
great advice..I'll be sure to keep that in mind the next go around.

The root I went was starting mine off in a 3gal pot then i mixed my organic mix 2-3 of the way up the top portion of the pot was just organic soil, vermiculite, perlite, and peat moss. Also put some rocks in the bottom for better drainage.
