New Pics Of My Babies....Need opinions on transplanting

My babies are 4 weeks old.

YES I KNOW THEY ARE SMALL. I left them in the rockwool starter cubes wayyyy too long! So they were root bound, and they didn't grow. They have exploded since I moved them into these dixie cups with soil.

I only have room for 8 7" square pots in my cabinet. Should I pick 8 and move them over? Or should I put them all in like this? Be nice if I could figure out which are females then keep 8 females and move those into the bigger pots =O

anyways here are some pics in my shitty temp veg chamber. My lights are scheduled to arrive wednesday. Looking forward to putting my babies into their new home... check out my cabinet here https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/116885-new-cabinet-just-about-finished.html







this one has some weird coloring on that leaf. not sure why





look at that weird color on the side of the one leaf

That's a tough one. You don't want them to become rootbound again, but you want 8 females. I don't have a good answer. You may have to try your luck with the healthiest eight, but ideally you'd sex first. Wait until you see preflowers maybe and try to determine that way, then transplant your 8 most likely candidates?

agreed. Flower all of them, then pick the best 8 females to be placed in a your 7 inch pots. With 7 inch pots youll need to flower right now anyways. Plus fdd will let you know that rootbound is only theory, not fact, so assuming you have time to water once or twice a day with whatever new lights you plan on using you should be fine.

I know they won't grow that big in 7" pots...that was my plan ;)

someone on here grows 18" plants in 1.5gallon pots..my pots are 1.7 gallon and i want to do sea of green and keep my plants under 24"

wow I bet you'll be glad when you can pull some clones and quit waste N time growing from seed :) exc aut flower guys. yeah re pot and flower, if you need to keep them small. you may be able to grow them a week or two clone them and sex the clones but I think your plants would be a bit taller than 24" looking good though or you could just wait for them to pre flower kill the males and flower with some lst they should remain manageable
