I agree, except with burying the stem to the first leaf. repotted mine around the stage you have shown here. Find five gallon pots if possible because weed plants love the space. Use an organic potting soil and do not add nutes (nutrients) for the first three weeks. Only water once weekly or twice if needed. Set tem three to four feet away from light and watch dem babies grow.

also make sure the new containers don't let in light, roots hate it. What kind of lights are you using? If you are using CFLs of floro tubes you should be fine if you are using a HID you gonna have to train the plants cuase 4 feet high is not gonna cut it.

uh oh, actually I am with FDD on this one, not to say the other poster is wrong, there are many right ways. I always bury to the first leaves, it helps if a plant has stretched and your instance it save you some vertical room...

Not only should you bury those things up to the first set of leaves, but you should get some better lights or move the ones you have closer. The stalks on those are REALLY stretched and your plant is going to fall over once it really starts adding leaves and especially when it buds. What kind of lights are you using and how far away are they?

Off topic ---> Seeing a guy with 13 total posts here contradict Fdd is priceless. If you realy have doubts on whether or not to follow his advice look up a few of his posts.

Get some CFL's. They sell them at damn near anystore you can find light bulbs at and they're cheap. They're the spirally looking ones that are marked as energy efficient. Pick up as many of the 100w equivs as you can get them within a few inches of those plants. You'll notice a big difference.
