should I transplant

hey guys,have 3 plant at 18litre pots but veggied for 48 days under 400w hps they are 60cm around height I see the roots at the top of my soil my question is should I transplant them to bigger pots or I will be fine?just started first day of flowering..

Any advise?

u should be in ur final pot. whatever size u choose

if ur seeing roots at the top of soil? bury them man, never seen that u have 3 gal pots right?

18l-4,7us gallon well I just added some soil at the top after watering I had a little space, but my pot is enough to finish flowering?or iam gonna have any problem?

A general rule is that you need one gallon of pot size for each month you plan on keeping the plant in that pot. I grow hot and fast - means 4 weeks vegging and 7 weeks flowering. So I rarely use a pot larger than 2 1/2 to 3 gallons. Starting a mother plant is one time I'll use a 5 gallon pot or when I have a strain I want to re-grow.

Good luck, BigSteve.

How much you yielding per plant?

"How much you yielding per plant?"

I cure 30-35 grams per plant with most strains. My Blueberry Gum strain averages about 50 g./per. If this seems light to you it is because over the years I have decided to emphasize quality over quantity. I could grow larger yielding plants but prefer a lot of short bushy plants in my perpetual grow. I can tweak variables and compare techniques a lot faster and better when plants are harvested quickly. May not suit all but I've done a ton of experimenting and adopted protocols that let me harvest 2 plants a week. The longer the period between germinating/cloning and harvest the more difficult it is to see and make changes.

Good luck, BigSteve.
