Hey guys, need to know if my girl needs transplanting, today she is 18 days from seed under 18/6. On day 15 i transplanted her from 18oz solo cup to a 1.5 gallon pot. Today (3 days later) I noticed there was a root that grew through the drainage hole.

Strain is Barneys Farm LSD

like i said in your other post i think you should either put her in a 5 gallon pot or raise the pot up a couple inches with something like a piece of pvc pipe, then just wrap some mylar around the bottom covering the roots from light. they are going to keep coming out, now even faster, tomorrow will be 2, then 10 and on, so no reason to wait!!!!

lol the roots coming out of your pot don't hurt a thing. I go with filling the pot with roots before going to a bigger pot. If it bugs you repot but you don't need to.

I like to wait till top growth runs outside the pot. That's usually a good indicator that it's time to transplant.

and dont cover the roots cause they will continue to grow and be destroyed when transplanting the plant is feeling out its space once it pops out it will air proon and the root will branch out in the pot.

By 3 weeks, I always have mine in their final pot. The growth rate really starts to pick up around week 3-4 for my Kush plants.
