Yeah go ahead and repot.
Just be careful not to break up the root ball.
After you transplant, water ONCE with superthrive. ONCE ONLY!!!

i would think you would be ok as long as the roots werent exposed to the light to much next time if your in a jam and have hieght just cut off the bottom and replant it on top of another pot with soil.

No Super Thrive, money issue? I would at least try to get some root/potting powder. You sprinkle the powder around the root ball and in the new hole and it helps alot with repotting. If not, then I would repot if really needed and leav the girls in flower a week longer than you first planned to make up for any shock.

You can also use seaweed or kelp to reduce the transplanting stress.

your plants gonna defenitly go into shock if you transplant it.

if its budding its not gonna be good it will stop budding for awhile maybe.. i dunno, ive never done it..

BUT

ive never actually transplanted a plant without it going into shock.
thats why i own "no shock" by advanced nutes. :D

What other purposes would you use SuperThrive? You stressed only Once in flowering stage. Is it good to use during the growing stage? Or is it mainly used to unstress plants during repotting?

I read a bit online about it but couldn't really find what it is actully good for just the "Sell" Page which says its good for everything.

I know its a bit off topic for this thread. But any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Kindly

you can use it all through veg and up to the first week in flower.imo it can and does prevent your plant from turning hermie . and also give the plant needed vitamins and other shit.the postman.

if you're that far into flowering, I personally wouldn't screw with replanting ... save your big pots for the next grow ... if re-potted, your plant will be using its energy at rooting again, instead of trichome and THC production ... in my opinion ... :smokin:

sorry, but that is mis-information ... Superthrive helps rooting ... and that is ALL that it does ... a myth is being perpetuated that Superthrive is some miracle cure-all ... it is Vitamin B1, and urine ... and it should NOT be used during the flowering cycle ... further, it has nothing to do with sex reversal or hermaphroditic plants ... over-use of it will kill your young plants, also ... :smokin:
