I would transfer fairly soon as well no need to bind up roots when there flourishing and transplanting dixies is beyond easy a razor up the side make dibet in your new pot and set it in
More lights fer sure but i think your gettin on that from what its sounds
and were you planning on lsting or topping makes it a little easier on space and opens up allot new growth
its comin along nice i always enjoy the low budget grows some turn out very well

Thanks a ton for the feedback !! :-) I'll transplant them ASAP
I am interested in LSTing wen do u advice me to do that...by the way i dont plan to veg it too long

Couldnt you order the things you can not get localy online? From the soil bag im guessing your in Asia somewhere. Big place I know! Are local laws so restictive that it would be punishable to order light bulbs and a ph pen?

Thanks for the feedback!! Yes I am from Asia ..Local law is bullshit here ,though marijuana is illegal..no problem on bulbs ..i can get them ..

The problem ordering online is ..If i had a credit card to order online ..i woudn't be calling myself a POOR MAN....I cannot explain..i'm really tied up n the cash ...trust me...and thanks :-)

Lol trust me if you had a credit card you would still be poor, I had 2 nice ones and now I owe bank of america a little shy of 40k now that I've been paying on it over a year now. So theywill run you in the poor house fast as hell, cash is better.

Your little ones do look very good, for what you're starting with - props to you for making it work!
I don't have a credit card either - I use a prepaid Visa - could you get one of those? A lot of stores carry them locally here, I don't know about where you're at - or if not, you can order one on-line - takes longer to get, put money on and all - but if there is something you really want it might be worth it. Don't feel bad - I know a lot of us here are on restricted budgets, myself included, having to go week to week to get something for our grow. Do your best with what you have!:peace:

I know man..credit card is too much hassle for me ..cash works good (whenever i have it ...:-) ) ...ill surely add up things as we get along with the grow !!.....i just hope i dont F*** Up with the grow in any way...and that is a good probability ..as i cant check a lot of things Ph , ppm etc...i also wont have nice nutes ...and worse... my cabinet is not big..so cant veg much...(im thinking of making a new one though!!

Hello Everyone !!

So i woke up this morning .and had practically nothing to do ..just like a lazy stoner ...i was looking at my plants (that's what i do every morning first when i wake up)...Plant # 1 seem'd to be growing at a nice rate ...so i decided to transplant it ...

i looked around to find a container for a long time...finally found one that is 5 &1/2 Ft deep and 4&1/2 Ft in diameter ..i posted pics of both containers to show a comparison ...The old containers were 4 to 4&1/2 FT. deep....

Pls Note that all measurements are approximate values ....

Iv posted all the pics as of today ..they were taken after i trasplanted them later in the morning..the pics are from that time ...

I would love to listen to your feedback !!

This poor one's been growing slow and steady ...also suffers from some slight nutrient burns i guess ..but its doing alright and i want to wait for some time before i transplant it to a bigger pot for 2 reasons -

1. i already transplanted it from the red pot recently (REMEMBER ??) ..so i dont want to shock it right now as there seems to be no hurry right now..

2. i want to see this plsnt rootbound before i transplant ..i want to do this one ..just for experimentation..i did PLANT #1 the other way i.e to transplant before ...

I hope im not taking this in the wrong direction.... i need your suggestions and feedback desperately !! Thank you once again ....:weed:

The pics are from today morning after the transplant...i watered it nicely after the transplant...i hope i didnt go wrong on that ..

Alright ..i'm scared that growth is gonna slow or halt now ...because of the shock from the transplant (it wasnt smooth ..u knw..though i did it Okay Okay )
Looks pretty good! The less you have to transplant them the better. If you can, aim to transplant them from their first home right into the one you plan to finish the grow with. Less chance of stressing out your babies that way!:peace:

Sorry about the unsystematic format of my journal...as u know i wasn't planning on a journal..its all pretty messed up ... Apologies for that :cry:
Ill try to be more systematic from now on...

I chose my seeds for this grow from a few months old bagseeds..as shown in the submitted picture
As the legend goes..i chose 3 of the darkest , healthiest ,shiniest seeds...The 3 seeds cracked open ..just one didn't sprout ..i put it too deep....
