they(the roots)won't grow much during flowering. it's not a big deal.

thanks for your quick reply x so your saying i shouldnt worry only i am a keen gardener and in this case with normal plants i would repot asap as the plants usually die if you don't if roots are exposed i was going to put a few clay pebbles in a the bottom of the tray incase the roots get damaged also the bottom leaves are yellow only a few is that normal sorry to be a pain x

There really isn't a thing called potbound or rootbound. The roots will stop when they can't grow any more. But it's good to transplant anyway, it provides more oxygen when the soil is dry and more fert availability. When roots stop the plants growth will slow but that's to be expected. 25 liters is about 5 gallons which is adequate. Not sure why you think they need to be transplanted. Should be fine.

I just finished 6 plants, 3 in 3 gallon containers and 3 in 5 gallon, one of the plants in the 3 gallon containers was the largest FWIW!.

just for future reference because i dont think u need to repot if they r in 5 gal containers, but u can carefully cut off the bottom of your pots and place them inside another pot the same size filled half to 3/4 the way with ur dirt.

any time i see hair i get excited:thumbsup: ounce or two would be good, however, how tall is it? are you training it? you could bottom feed as well. i doubt your root bound though. when the the soil becomes depleted, it becomes more difficult to maintain health. you need nutes and correct ph balance depending on soil choice and how long since you transplanted. finish with what pots you have.
