and ya you should have t-planted long ago.......trial and error is not the way to go..........read read read:thumbsup:

I agree with read read read but that plant looks fine. There was no need to transplant it before now. In fact, the plant will do better if you crowd its roots just a bit. Note that I'm not saying let them get root bound. The plant grows in cycles. First it concentrates on root growth needed to support additional above ground growth. Once the underground space is maximized they shift to canopy growth. At some point the roots can not support additional canopy growth. At that point you need to transplant or you will face issues - usually nutrient lockout which is not evident here. If you transplant too soon you won't maximize canopy growth, the roots will just keep stretching. It is the same reason that you do not start out in a 3 gallon pot. It is a balancing act to be sure.

By the looks of it you timed it just right. That said, you should probably re-pot it soon!
