any response to this will be appreciated
ahh i understand your problem.

problems from not transplanting....no space to grow and mature. you should be giving your plant one gallon of soil per foot of plant, keep in mind your plant will double if not triple its size during flowering....hence the bigger pot container.

BUT, is it worth the risk to try and grow your plants and not produce much bud because the roots didnt have space to grow....or since your already taking the risk growing upgrade to a slighty bigger container..........3 gallon would be alright, 5 gallon would be great. you can bend your plants and (or) tie them down. seach for LST around here if you dont know what it is.

if they are already in plain view sight for the neighbors why not amaze them with a bigger plant?
