Hey!
last time i grew i had a small closet so i grew
5 plants in small 4/5 liter pots. now i have a bigger place
and im going to grow two big ones-i think that in the
flowring stage i will put them in a 20-30 liter pots.
my qustion is-can i still use the small pots? i mean-i will
probably need to move them on the third week already.and since
its nod good to move the plant meny times i will need to put them
in the 20-30 liter pots-is that a good idea? or it might couse
problem puting a small two weeks old plant in such a big pot??
thanks for your help!!

I would start small and repot a couple of times.
Let the roots explore the smaller pot fully before upsizing, that way you end up with lots of roots throughout the whole pot.
If you plant straight into a huge pot the roots will just grow out and down and end up missing the middle.

By repotting a couple of times you are developing a strong feeder network of roots, and delivering fresh soil right where (and when) they need it.

why isnt it good to transplant more than once? I dont know where you got that idea from bro. Transplanting is incredibley easy, just be careful and you'll be perfectly fine. I'll transplant during flower if i feel like it would help even and i dont have any problems. Some people develop a phobia about transplanting(same with cloning too) it almost seems. Dont be scared, you can do it.

I typically transplant 3x. Twice in veg and then one more time just before flowering. It really helps to create an effective root structure.
