I have 2 plants in an 5 gallon bucket, the light is low...wondering if the cheaper light for growing will get me enough for a single bucket. Also when they 2 sprouts appeared. Was shocked as I didnt plan for 2. How can I transfer out of said bucket. It only has 2.5 gallon of soil. It is almost to the sides now.

I'm surprised that you've gotten as far as you have with that light, well done.

Best to separate them before the roots get two tangled. If it were me I'd just take a spatula and drive it down between them, separating the roots. Then transplant.

So they're not too far to transplant again. They look better now than they did earlier. I only live next door to you, province-wise. Can I use one of those $30 grow bulbs? I don't have much space at all. I must add as well these plants were closer. I would love to separate them scared I'll lose. Both are definitely female branches are correct. Strain insane OG. If this don't work so I got more to start. At the moment trying not to use solar but it's too cold yet.

Separate and repot.
$30 grow light.....not in my opinion.

if your that worried about seperarting the roots, just do it in either a bowl full of water, or running ewater from the tank or from a water pums, then replant them in fresh soil

I have heard of this. It that the root system are to close. Or they will fail to get need light? To the light I have not looked at it however open to suggestions. I am not limited on amount spent. Just playing, I enjoy the challenge then as well as the returns. I have successfully out door grows. Even did a feral type o

yes, the root system, depending on just how interwoven the roots are with each other, you may be lucky and the just pull apart,
there will be spome root damage if pulled apart, if water is used, you can just put the soil in some water and bounce the plants up n down in it untill they seperate.
then just repot them afterwards

Made it out for the day. So this is a 5 gallon bucket. How dry can I really get, I would like to separate. Will do so under water. They both have a great look. So would like to save them. However how long do I have. It is dangerous to cut root ball, correct? If I come to this what else should I have prepared. Also if I got rid of the small. What is best way to kill just that 1 not bothering lager. I am in a space binding situation. Truly just having a green thumb happy moment... would think another 20 days till I am good for almost everyday out and in for night till flowering..then out 24.will this work... what can I do in preparation. Her is also a shot of my living area. No plants aloud. An I am Canadian. Strain is insane og aka 3xcrazy
