Think she's rootbound, in flower.....

Plant is currently in a 3 gal. pot. She vegged for 10 weeks and currently 6 days into flower. The day after switching to flower, rather healthy green leaves were drying up and dropping and some of the branches were drooping and going limp. I was thinking my high humidity in flower was the cause, fixed that but really no improvement. Someone else thought root bound and it sure makes sense but never dealt with it before, and being in flower, yet early, makes dealing with a little trickier, no? Stress?

This is my plan for tomorrow. Transplant into 5 gal., maybe slightly bigger if i've got it. I think that is the only chance she has. But then, should I leave her in flower or switch back to vegging until she is back up growing strong? Hoping to minimize the stress as much as possible.

Can you post some pics? I would not transplant while in Flowering....I have seen and grown root bound plants that buds just fine!!!! If you do transplant its going to take some time to get the plant back on a steady schedule and I would recommend a Smart Pot so you wont have to worry about root bound plants. Just keep in mind if you do transplant during flowering your plant will focus on re-establishing its roots which will take away from your yield.
