probably root bound = needs a bigger pot

hi m8 so a 5 litre pot is 2 small chees

[bigtopsfinn]

That should do for now. In the end you will need 15L to 20L pots to finish in, depending on veg time. But it's good to transplant several times, so no need for those large containers yet.

25 degrees is pretty cold, iv heard at least 40-50 degrees. i hope your heater gets the temps up again. And Fin's right on, as i re pot all the time, before the go into the ground:rasta:

That honestly looks like over watering to me. I just survived something similar, or so it looks. My leaves still seem droopy at times. There is NO WAY mine are root bound yet, or I should be able to see roots on the side of the container. (My plant is 14 inches tall, and in a 4L ice cream pail. Uses 1 cup of water ever 3 days, and the room stay between 23-28 degrees. (That is in celcius which is what I assume you were using too?))

:wtf:Maybe I might be wrong
