transplanting could shock them and worst case turn them into "hermies" when the female turns male and starts producing seeds, which takes energy from the THC/bud production (what gets you stoned), so generally transplanting is not recommended...

but you have another thread started that shows a beautiful plant in an outdoor location that it thriving, so consider transplanting there. the picture and your description of slow budding suggest that your plant might be a "sativa" dominant variety of marijuana, which is a type that buds late and for a longer period of time...which means that transplanting could be beneficial for this type...but you risk getting a hermie plant and if you transplanted to your other location you would put that other plant at risk of producing seeds instead of buds...tough call, if i were you, i'd be happy with the results of the other outdoor plant that's in the ground, harvest in a few weeks & cure it, then come down to santa cruz, cali with your friend and party with me!

good luck to you
cannawish Reviewed by cannawish on . Bottom branches budding but nothing on top.... I have been growing my firt plant on the balcony of my condo building. It was getting a tad large and I noticed that all the bottom branches had started to bud and smell delicious. I have to move my plant to my other balcony which is covered and gets barely any sunlight.... my question is why hasnt the top started budding yet and the bottom branches have been budding for atleast 2 weeks? My other question is will the cut down on so much direct sunlight hurt my plant?? Will the budding continue Rating: 5
