if the plant has already gone into a rootball stage, what is the best way to cure it? I have the Veg. in 3" square pots for 2wk. and the roots are busting out the bottom. Then they go into 1gl. pots and in 2-3wk. its crowding the drain. Soon after they get put into 3gl. pots. Then the roots run for another 2-3wk. When the roots start to show on 2 or more of the drain holes, it's time to change. This is about the time for 12/12. Now w/ one more pot change into a 5gl. or slightly larger container, the plant will get chopped before the roots crowd the drain. So I guess my question is "how often should you upsize your container?" I think some may call it "pot graduation"
