Looks good.
Once you have roots established - which you do, it is ready to put in your growing medium.

So I can take the dome off I assume, and it can go directly into flower?

Yea Man,
Once they have roots you don't need the dome anymore.
I veg longer, but you can put it into flower if you want - you just won't get as much as you would from a larger plant.

Thats a nice cloning job dude.. And syze, you should explain that, because I've always found the sooner the better so that roots can grow into the soil, not be plopped into it.. I will add though that you should transplant into a SMALL container, and keep upping the size as needed..

yeah too late, looks fine..
You know I've heard both ways, even on Jorge Cervantes grow dvd explains to plant when roots are abundant, but I've also heard hes an assclown. I don't know? I do know that reputable people on this site helping me through this agree to plant, and yes always put in small containers first, I'll veg this out a while, may even make it my mother? Not sure yet, but for now it looks outstanding.
Off subject, anyone find a spicy malbec pairs with pot?

Actually, soil is pretty forgiving either way, but if planting into hydroton or something you want to get them in early..
Only complication with jumping the gun is the extended period of moisture per watering.. Thats why I said small pots.. Wanna know another kickass reason to keep upgrading pot size, take a look at uncle ben's thread on chemical root-pruning with copper based compounds.. I think it was the Cervantes book that stole UB's pics on that matter
, but perhaps I'm mistaken.. One mainstream guru/dipshit did steal and publish them though..

Because you're likely to damage them..

I myself would give it a week or so of veg time to get a bigger root system going before flowering but she is more than healthy enough to take the dome off. When I was doing SOG last year I gave clones two weeks total to make roots/veg before flower but it probably doesn't make much of a difference. Budsicles didn't seem to vary too much for me in size regardless of that little bit of veg time.

Definately take the dome off, its the planting aspect that carries different schools of thought..
