Horrible pics taken with my video camera. Just wondering if they have outgrown their pots. Also I'm flowering them for about 5-6 days now. Is it Okay to transplant during?

I ended up with 3 girls! Woot!!
The pics are bad, but I think you'll get the gist of it.

Yes, it's safe to transplant. Here is a little advice for transplanting...

1. Pre-moistened soil mix then lossen soil
2. Tap gently
3. Hold plant upside down to eject root ball
4. Place in new pot
5. Water using ph balanced water - gently backfill around plant base.

Hope that helps....I know it basic info but I've had great success so I like to share all of the info i can....good luck

Email, That thread is impossible to read, You cant stop staring at Fdd's plants long enough to actually read the words. But I am, it's just taking awhile....

At the stage you're at now with your babies I would transplant soon....no longer than a week. If you wait too long, you could really stress them out. Good luck.

Thanks guys!! I think they're "telling" me they want a teeny bit more room. Just a little. I think I'll go up to gallon pots and leave it at that.
Have a fukkin awesome Thanksgiving!!!
