I am not able to get to the garden store till tomorrow and want to know if these root tips will spring back to health when transplanted or if i need to cut them off.

When size pot should I transplant to I was thinking a gallon and a half sq pot.


Thanks:thumbsup:
Are you also using Big Bloom with the Big Grow? I found out the hard way that Big Bloom is the catalyst for the nutrient solution and had major nute probs my first go with FF. Also, the FFOF soil has tons of nutes in it, I don't think you should need any added nutes for a couple weeks or so if they have only been potted for 4 weeks. Keep in mind to if you are transplanting into more FFOF soil that you will have more nutes available. Pay attention to what the plants tell you before you force feed them and throw the soil off kilter, it'll pay off later in flowering I promise.

Temps with high of 85 shouldn't be too bad. It's strain dependent to some degree, you may see a little stretch, but if it's your first grow, don't be too concerned.

I believe that once a root dies, it is dead forever. I don't think they regenerate after death, they just get replaced by other new healthy roots.

Final container size will dictate how large you can get these. Growing under fluoros your gallon and a half size sounds good to me. How long until you plan on flowering?
