Is She Starting To Flower? And if so, Is It Too Late To Transplant?? PICS

Plant in it's 13th week of growth. I was about to transplant today because the pot is too small and the stem is too long, but the pistils are growing super fast and it looks like some tiny buds are forming. I was wondering if it's a good idea to transplant when she's about to start flowering? I dont want to lose her due to transplant shock. What do you guys recommend?

Sorry if these are pure noob questions but I'd appreciate some help, thanks.

I would transplant immediatly. Itll be fine u shud have transplanted the time u seen it go into flowering!! U cud reveg it bro and get a much nicer yield. And bro im not sure if thatll continue to flower because it seems very sativa dominant. When did u plant it?

No matter what u do its gonna re veg.. unless its an autoflower strain. So those buds wont get very big.. eventually they will start dying and the plant will start vegging again until fall.

mind if i ask, sativa dominant won't flower outside? not enough sunlight?

Huh??? Wat are u asking?

If its very indica dominant and it goes into flowering even here in florida where its blazing hot it will continue to flower bit if its sativa dominant it will just reveg i have a 3 foot sativa plant thats geting prolly 13 or 14 hours a day and its been producing white hairs with the new growth for months now. Only two white hairs per node. Bu its still growin like crazy so its not in flowering

Dude even if its a straight indica it will still re veg. U shudnt give out misleading advice. No matter if its iindica or sativa if its not getting at least 13/11 then it will stop flowering.

i know people who force plants to flower outside even during the longest month of the year. i know people who veg plants inside on 24hours and put them outside in a greenhouse to flower year round. no light deprivation or anything, they just keep flowering even under 14 1/2 to 15hours of light during june. its pretty common actually

there has to be some kind of light deprivation unless its an auto strain.

Planted it from seed on May 28

So Im going to transplant tomorrow into a 5 gallon bucket with some foxfarms ocean forest soil. To reduce transplant shock by as much as possible, Im going to tranplant with the method that follows:

1. Lay a cloth down under the pot
2. Carefully cut out the circular bottom of the pot without disturbing any roots.
3. cut a vertical slit down the side of the pot
4. hold in place, pull up cloth around plant to keep everything secure and carefully fit into the pre-fitted hole of soil in the new pot.
5. Then Ill just slide the outer sheath of the old pot out, and remove the cloth.

Ive never tried this but Im hoping itll work, Ill let you know how it goes.

Alternatively you could let the soil dry and turn the plant upside down, the root ball and all the soil will slide out.

I have seen this with my plants (indica based). They starting showing signs of reveg around the beginning of May (after 2-3 weeks of flowering), and are still progressing the buds now(almost finished).

That is misleading advice lol. Dude i live in florida and i can flower an 100 indica at anytime of the year without ever bringing it inside. Just only giving it say 10 hours of direct sunlight. And i garuntee when the plant is mature enough it will flower and you wont be able to change that even if move the plant where its getting 14 hours of sunlight it will still flower. Sorry homie. Tried and tested.

Just take a plant that was never ever indoors and exposed to 20 or however many crazy hours of light u give it and keep it somewhere where its getting a about 14 hours of light then put the bitch where its only getting about 6 or 7 hours of direct sunlight and before ur eyes ur plant will show its sex! Holy fuck no way! Yeah dude and after it flowers for a week putthe bith back in the spot where it was gettin 14 hours of light and it will continue sir. Just experience dude i didnt learn it lol

What you just described is light deprivation. You previously said that you flower indicas with no light dep. Which one is it?

U can do use either sir and no its not deprivation some strains flower under 5. Hours direct sunlight and the rest in the shade. Its still sunny out... Its fucking florida. Im not arguin no more lol who gives a fuck i dont care if u belive it or not

Your plant is flowering to to the cycle of light outdoors (not enough for the vegatative growth) see if you can get it close to a light source for at least a couple of hours at night then in a few more weeks you can put it wherever, your plant will grow wierd for awhile putting out three or even single blade leaves, the growth will also slow if not stop until your plant can reset itself inside to veg again (re veg) .... your plant will be fine to transplant....if you could get a different plant it might have a chance to beat out that one but if its all you've got then just keep at it.... its all learning till you know anyway! Good luck
