Transplanting During Flowering Help (ASAP)

[BigBudDaddy08]

Ok Iv got 2 plants each are in 2 gallon pots.There in flowering now.One of wich just showed its female flowers.And the other has a nice little penny sized top cola.My qustion is the one with bud already has roots growing out the bottom bad can i transplant into a 3 gallon pot this far into flowering with out doing any damage ,Like less yeild less potent ,

Or should i leave it in the 2 gallon and risk less yeild ,less potent,And maybe even her dieing .

Just because you can see roots coming out the bottom of the pot does not mean a plant is rootbound. How tall is she at the moment? Has she been transplanted before?
To me, its a bit of a gamble whether to transplant or not. If youve done it before and are good at it, then go for it. If youve never done it before, then leave her be. Also, if shes been transplanted before, then leave her. If you do transplant though, Id use Superthrive considering shes flowering.

Hey ''Tom'' she is probaly right at 1 ft.Yes she has been transplanted befor from a 1 gallon pot to the 2 gallon.Yes i have transplanted a few times and each time i never had any problems such as slowed growth or drooping.Guess its because when transplanted they all came out the exact shape of the the pot and dirt never crumbled off with roots.

So you think i should go for it?

Seeing as youve done it before and you sound pretty good at it, then Id say go for it. You may end up with a hermie though because of the shock, but the risk is minimal if temperature, nutes, pests etc have been kept under control :)

Thanks ''Tom'' alot .Yeah my temps and nutes and ect. Have been great all the way through this grow and hope they do the same for the rest of this grow.

Well i transplanted her this morning .I never seen so thick of roots in my life every single root that was around the dirt clob was the size about a pencile thick. And she was very root bound lol.

Thanks ''Tom'' again .Ill get some pictures up for you too see the girl you saved

Something to consider next time- I used a weak shot of Root Stimulator (by Ferti-lome) after each transplant. Also for the final transplant, to begin flowering; I trimed the feeder roots back 50% and sliced though the tap roots with a knife. This is very nerve racking on the first grow! (sounds like a chamber of horrors, to me) but the girls loved it........and rewarded me very well for it.
