Well ladies n gents, you've convinced me - avoiding transplanting is not the way to go.

However, the thought of re-potting after the girls have already been scrogged is something that doesn't exactly thrill me.

Now I have to decide if I want to just chance it and try to nurse them along to harvest, or break out the snippers and do away with the screen so I can re-pot.

Ugh....decisions...decisions...

thx guys...
