Don't ever trim a root ball in flower.
Give it another week and then transplant into 2 gallon pots. You'll be totally fine. Transplanting during week 3 of flower is not only very common, but it is an EXCELLENT way to manage space and canopy in your grow room. There's a canopy sticky at the top of 'basic' that explains this.
stinkyattic Reviewed by stinkyattic on . Roots coming out First I would like to say I'm on my phone so bare with me. ok so today when I went to water my plants I noticed roots coming out of the bottom. I just transplanted my 2 month old plants into these pots one week ago then switched the lights to 12/12. The pots there in now are 1 gallon. Ok so do yall think I should transplant them again or are they fine up to harvesting. I'm running out of room so if I do transplant them I would have to wait till I could tell the sex and dump the males. What Rating: 5
