My plant is about two months old and doing great although shes getting a little tall and wobbly. I notice i didnt fill my pot to the top with the medium i used. i was wondering if i could cover some of the leafless stem up with more grow medium? Thanks

You sure can. I take my Sativas which are tall, and transplant from a 3 gallon at 27" into a 5 gallon and now they are 22".

Your welcome, happy grows to you both.

My next set of Diesel I am going to fim when very little 4" then when she gets bigger I am going to clone all bottom then bury her deep so it looks like 4-6 plants coming out of medium.

GoldenGanja13 Just curious how hard it is to transplant from a 3gallon pot without causing stress to my plant? I need to real bad but i am scared of damaging the roots. I think in the future i will just plant straight to a 5 or 10 gallon pot so there is never a worry about transplant shock.!

To do so, you can try to pack your soil a little more than it is right at the moment, so it'll hold together not too bad.
Then just transfer into another, bigger pot, and you should be fine. Magic is to keep the roots from having much contact with oxygen and light.

But you are indeed best off trying to transplant into your main pot right away, instead of waiting each interval. Makes the growing a little faster, and a little less stressful for the plants.

Easy Easy. I just transplanted 2 Diesel that where both around 28" in 3 gallon and since I am going 12/12 with them in like 2-3 weeks I just reach down the sides of container (all 4) and loosen up soil, then useing both hands deep in I reach under her root ball and pull out slow. I then put her deeper in new container. They are like 23" high now (fresh soil,except rootball).
My Diesel in flower was 34" high and I had to put her in a 5 gallon. No stress at all. The 2 above, well one showed a small sign of stress. I normally give them 6 hrs dark after transplant.
