Is this plant rootbound.LOTS PICS OF ROOTBALL.4 week flowering.urgent help needed!!!!

kash959 · Dec 19, 2008

Do these look potbound? They are 4 week into flowering. What should i do? This is just one plant of 7. What would happen if i leave it coz i've heard that replanting during flowering is detremental. Also, if they are potbound, will they resume normal growth/flowering or will it affect yeild or flowering length. Please reply if you know anything because they are 4 week into flowering and i've spent a lot of ca$$H.. Oh and do the buds look big enough for 4 weeks. I reckon they are a bit smaller than they should be and that's why i thought it's rootbound. plz help. thanx in advance

I would def transplant to a bigger pot.....gently massage the roots to loosen them up a bit, then transplant.....you should see noticeable growth between now and harvest

TRANSPLANT!!! Ur only in week 4 meaning u got at least another 5-6 weeks left if it's indica. The sooner u transplant the better, those roots need some room badly. Give em some space and theyll love u for it.

I think transplant is safe, but if you look @ a grower on this forum, that goes by, mrbomdigity, dude grows awesome buds out of gatorade bottles, and says rootbound is a state of mind, Im starting to believe it after I seen those AWESOME buds in a damn gatorade and 20 oz mountain dew bottles!

Only advice I'd give is replanting into a soil-less mix like vermiculte-perlite or even coco. If you throw it into fresh soil you may introduce too much nitrogen. I have no experience with this myself so it would be worth asking someone that can guide you better, but if you transplant into soilless you can just keep giving flowerign nutes and may avoid a problem.

I know what you're saying JxAxG. There's this Drbud or something and he has like the smallest containers in the world and he yielded atleast an ounce of dry bud each plant or something. I don't get it because rootbound plants do show a difference to normal growth and stuff... but those small containers can't possible take a grow from seedling till end. I don't understand. We need someone really experienced to explain it...
