i have read numerous times about not transplanting autos. Due to my situation and starting in a cold season I tried to save some electricity and started them indoors under small leds with house heat, there was no need for a heater to keep temps up. After 7 days from seed I did gently transplant and the affect seemed to stunt my babies dramatically. A friend who started 2 weeks earlier left his in rapid rooters for 2 weeks before transplanting. Granted I used small pots before transplanting but not the super small rapid rooters. His plants are now 1/3 what mine are.
I would say never ever transplant

Plants look amazing. not familiar with the magnum strain but I might familiarize myself with them. How many plants under the 600?

Are you going to squeeze all 7 under the hps?
I ask because I am having space issues. Thought I was making a room big enough but the flowering section is only 6x6 with 12 fairly large plants. Likewise autos but at day 38. Trying to make some extra room for another dozen to veg.
The local grow shop was terrible with advice. I ended up buying 7 gallon air pots which are way to large for these plants. I wonder if I could or anyone has cut the base down and overlapped the sides with the air pots.

That's funny stuff man. I had an old friend from the UK who always mentioned b&q. breathable bags I agree that they are a great option. Price wise the net especially Amazon is about 4 times the price of local shops.
The guy at our local grow shop said they are even washable in a washing machine. But then said just don't use your own. Lol!!
If there isn't s local option for bags or air pots hydro Galaxy has the cheapest price in air pots that I have seen. 12 -5 gallon pots for 145$ With free shipping. Great benefit to these is the adjustable bottom. Easy to raise or lower them if you decide to use less.

I bought the the matching sized saucers for the air pots local and since I'm using promix that drains soooo slow I always notice extra water collecting in the bottoms. Vac vac and next day 1-2 inches of water. Not sure if it's a big deal but I'm noticing major root growth popping out of the bottom.

I started with the thin wire crap to tie the plants down. Didn't take long to cut a stem and really had to change. I think hydro farm makes these. Great stuff!!
