Default Abnormaly rootbound?
How often should I be transplanting? I'v been told, Whenever its rootbound. Alright so my plant is now 4 weeks old and within the last 2 weeks it has become root bound in a 2 gallon pot.
Below are 2 images of my plant. I am going to transplant into a 5 gallon pot. I am wondering if this is fucked. People have said as a rule of thumb, 1 gallon/ foot of growth, though my plant is about half a foot and alredy needs a 5 gallon pot. I am wondering if this is normal for plants? Maby it is a side effect of the superthrive I use at every watering? Please tell me what the deal is.

I flipped it upside down, took it out of the pot, and saw the rootbound.

I can't imagine roots filling a 2 G pot so early on. IMO, that's not the norm.
I doubt the SThrive is responsible, assuming you're within recommended dosing.
It might be helpful if you could post a pic of the roots?
IDK why it's drooping. Thirsty?
If that little plants roots have filled that planter, you're in for one hell of a ride, as in it's gonna be a big grower.
Wish I could help. It's easier to TP dry . . . wet soil tends to fall apart.
Good luck, HRF

there is no such thing as rootbound if you are properly watering/nuting/flushing/phing. There are tons of people on this forum that harvest healthy, mature/heavy yielding weed out of pots the same size as yours
