need advice on plant height ..

whhats up riu,

i recently just transplanted 2 7-8 week old chemo plants , one 16 inches and the other 10... they were both transplanted in too garbage bags with about 15L of soil in each( 1 gallon= 4.5L), so what would be the best height to start flowering at so my plants dont go rootbound or anything like that...

poc waa

You don't want them to get any taller than your grow lights will penetrate, root binding is not that big a deal really.

My plants are in 3gal containers so about 13.5L of soil. Started flowering at 18" they are now 36" and have gone rootbound hardcore i have so many dying leaves!! I would say flower at 12" or get bigger containers its up to u

thanks man, i thnink im gonna just start flowering now, cause i still have room for 4 more to cycle in...

i use 3 gallon smartpots and grow my plants to 3feet and NEVER get rout bound.......dont know why everyone has so much trouble not getting root bound 3gallon is big enough if you know what you doing

i'm having issues with dying leaves as well in my 3gal grow. Could be from PH lockout but judging by the size of my LSD plant (little over 3feet) she could be rootbound. how would you prevent a plant from that? is it all about when you repot or something?

what ive heard is you want roughly a gallon of soil for every foot youd like your plant to be
