hi all! just wondering, ive got a few big bud seedlings (not too far away from vegetative growth) all in seperate containers. if i didn't move the plants to a bigger container, would there be any growth problems or would the roots just grow outwards? sorry if this is a bit of a...stupid question, its my first grow. the plants are currently in one deep propagation tray each and they seem to be doing fine. any help appreciated! thanks! bongsmilie

Welcome to RIU :hump:

Your best course of action is to put each plant into its own container. There is much debate about the term "rootbound" lately so I'm guessing your question will draw different opinions. I'm curious about your last sentence....what exactly do you mean "one deep propagation tray each". How deep?

hey, thanks for the quick reply, man. appreciated. umm, the trays are about 4 1/2 inches deep. yeah, i was just thinking, do the roots have to burrow deeper to hold the plant up or would roots growing horizontally do the same job? i've got a deeper container on standby anyways.
