Something to consider next time- I used a weak shot of Root Stimulator (by Ferti-lome) after each transplant. Also for the final transplant, to begin flowering; I trimed the feeder roots back 50% and sliced though the tap roots with a knife. This is very nerve racking on the first grow! (sounds like a chamber of horrors, to me) but the girls loved it........and rewarded me very well for it.
