No roots poking out of the bottom I looked just now and have seen none coming out of the drain holes.

That's weird. If they're rootbound I would expect them to be sticking roots out the holes, and they are old enough to be. I would do what @ganga gurl420 said. And take a good look at the roots when you do.

Well I had a couple male plants that I wanted to look down in the roots so I dump the soil out and the roots looked good but not good enough like they wasn’t even close to root bound so I’m thinking my soil is to compact and not letting the roots grow or my roots are just shitty idk lol

Typically lack of root production is lack of air flow commonly caused by overwatering
Its a weed it likes dry soil

Yeah I think that was my problem in the middle of my grow I was showing them to much love and was overwatering them. As soon as I realized what was going on I backed off the water and they have seem to be doing a lot better so I’ve been watering less and letting the soil get super dry before watering which seems to help a lot.

If they're not rootbound then potting up won't change anything really. Sounds like they got stunted. At this point I would just watch for deficiencies and flower them out. Chalk it up as a learning experience.

Yeah that’s what I’m thinking is that why they are so small is my fault. I think I overwatered them and it took them awhile to come back from it but hell I’ve learned a lot this first grow that’s for damn sure. It was a very fun learning experience and still got a lot to learn. I think I got about a month left of them two plants I’d say.

My bad...I dont know why I didny think about compaction. I just knew it was something going on under the skirt so to speak.

Yeah I think it’s just really compact in there because when I poured the soil out of the male plants there was like 5 inches of soil
Just compacted so tight you can see where I was poking it to aerate it with a bamboo skewer lol

It could indicate the beginning of a nute deficiency, or it could be the strain. Some guys have two different phenos of the same strain, one with perfectly normal petioles (the stem for the leaves) one with entirely purple. If your plants are showing other signs of deficiency I would look at the nutes. Otherwise I wouldn't worry.
As to how far along in flower you are, a few weeks?
Does it really matter? They're done when they're done and unless you're looking at setting up a perpetual grow with some clones the timing will vary.
