transplanting 2-3.5 feet 10 week plants

They’re in 3 gallon pots maybe 2/3 are in 3.5 gallons. These plants I have have been said to flower in 7 weeks. Should I put them in bigger puts or this’ll work?

Have you flipped to 12/12 yet? If they are 3 feet tall now, they will be 6 feet by the time they are done flowering. Time to start chopping.


PICTURES would really help us help you.

TOP THEM RIGHT NOW. If you top and flip to 12/12 right now, those pots are probably big enough. Nothing wrong with going bigger though- the more dirt they have to pull nutrients from, the less nutrient issues you will have. Less frequent watering too.

Plants that size would sure be happy to have a bigger pot just before 12/12. :p I always pot up from 3 gal pots to 5 gal just before flip unless my veg time is cut short and the plant isn't very big (or short strains from EU). Then I stay in 3 gal pots.

Yeah bigger pot=bigger buffer. More nutrients, more space for water. Results in feeding/watering less often. Personally i would top them, pot up to 5 gallon, and flip to flower in a week or so.
