I always drill large holes (1/2" or more) in the sides of pails.
You can transplant at any time as long as you minimize damage to the root ball.
I typically transplant for the last time after the flowering stretch is mostly over, so at hte end of week 2. This lets me gauge appropriate finishing pot size.
stinkyattic Reviewed by stinkyattic on . pot size question Greetings, I am in week 5 of vegitive growth, my very healthy plants are currently in 2 gallon buckets and growing very fast, they are only 8" to 12" tall but have been LST'ed into bushes and are free to grow vertically now. My question is: Am I going to be OK in 2 gallon buckets if I put (can't remember the name ) those clay balls used in Hydroponics on top of the soil, so all the soil is used by the roots therefore utilizing the entire bucket space for roots. Or should I transplant Rating: 5
