I thought she would make it without transplanting and i left myself in a bad spot now. I can see little knotw on my plants and can only assume these are roots trying to push out the plants. I can also see roots on the top of the soil. Now my question is should i transplant her. she has about 4 weeks too go. also how should i go about doing it. Thanks for the help.

im not too sure... root trimming is a common practice.. it really wont hurt your plant at all if done with a little tlc and a close eye on your medium conditions BUT
being so far into flowering im not exactly sure if it would stress the plant to the point of being herme...
good question, wish i could give you a better answer

How big are the pots ur useing now?
I would say it would be worth it to transplant, if you can.
Try to be carefull when doing it as to not stress them,

Just put ur hand on the soil with the stem between ur fingers,
carefully dislodge the soil from the pot,
and place in the pot of soil you have ready and top up.

Goodluck.

i have a picture of the plant but not of the root bounding. camera isnt working at the moment but here she is at 6 weeks. i think that being root bound also caused all the problems with my plants leaves as well. ive lost all the leaves due to deficiency
