Should I transplant?

[bix]

I'm a week into flowering and this plant seems to need water quite often, leaves are starting to curl down too. They are under a 600W HPS and I just recently moved it up a few inches cause it was getting pretty hot down there.

Do you think this pot is ok til harvest?

IMO Yes, right now. She will love you for it, next time get her to a larger pot at least 7-10 days prior to flower.

She will be fine.

Bad job on my part guessing what size I would need... I transplanted 2 weeks before flower just didn't get a big enough pot

Going to put them in some bigger pots as soon as the lights come back on... Thanks!!!

What lighting did you veg with? How much head room do you have? My guess is that plant is 24"? can you handle a 6 foot plant? Will your current lighting set up take advantage of that extra growth?

I see lots of plants with bare space 12 - 18" up from the dirt.

If you use soil and need to water more than once every 4 days you should transplant.

Vegged with a 600W MH... about 7' headroom... Plant is around 24" I guess

I have 4 females. 1 I pruned so its a little shorter... one is just shorter cause it grew that way... and then 2 beasts like the one in the pics. I figure 600W HPS should do the trick.

Sounds like you have enough head room. I think one of the symptoms of having it in too small of a pot is lack of secondary branches. I have 2, 60 day old, 12" plants in 5" pots and they look just like yours, execpt half the height. Their sisters are all like 36" with many secondary branches but are in bigger pots.

These plants are all the same age:
