I wouldn't transplant that late into flower. The roots won't have time to fill in..and if they try to..the plant will use the energy it should be using to make bud to make root.

the ONLY exception I can think of here is if they're in too small of pots and are SEVERELY rootbound or if you are leaving town and need the extra soil to help the rootball stay moist while you are away.

good luckl

it is still less the 3 weeks of flower so i would say do it if you pots are really to small.

how tall are you girls and how big are the pot they are in now in gallon ruffly?

yes right now they are 1 gallon pots, was gonna go to 3 gallon pots...but i dont think the pot is too small yet...my tallest plant is 13 inches...smallest about 10 or 11...would a 3 gallon give me bigger buds?

there is a little formular for pot size, gallon soil per foot plant, so by that you will be fine with a 2 gallon one even.

why are your babies so damn little 3 weeks into flower??? did you start flowering them immature?

tiny single stem plants, if you ask me a shame but now it is to late to really do anything about it...:(

next time veg until they gain maturity, top them in this process frequently and tie branches so the grow strong and sideways. a good plant deserves 8 weeks of veg at least;) it ain't molesting them, what you do is kind of plant molestation:lol:

Geez..give the guy a fookin' break. There's a learning curve..and he's learning...

boggle.. (are these bogglegums from BOG, BTW?)

if it isn't fully rootbound...and I mean roots wrapping the container bottom and thick as hell...I would let em go. FWIW..had you upsized the pot a week or two prior to 12/12 and kept giving them 1/2 veg nutes/1/2 bloom nutes you would have seen them jump about now and those bigger budz woulda came on. You'll stil do OK in th 1 gal, I'd guess....just whap the fuck outta em with light and a bit of love and they'll give you all they can.

good luck

lol, there the size i want them to be...i would like to finsh with a 2-3 foot plant and not a 6 foot plant, been there done that....i saw a thread on icmag about 12/12 from seed so i said what the fuck....they had only vegged for about 21 days or so and i switched to 12/12...not really worried about weight...just want something simple and easy....it will be plenty of bud to get me buy until the next cycle...will let you know the final weight....

And yes these are BOG seeds...i have had them for about 2 yeard and finally got them planted...and i have more where those came from....its all good guys...i got faith in my lil ladies....you'll be surprised....i hope...lol

With that being said i would agree that they are still small...i ran into some problems when i did my first transplant i could not get them to dry out...i noticed no groth during this time, so i am guessing i schocked them with the soil or overwatered them....well i'll keep my fingers crossed....the buds grow more and more everyday

Cool. I have some packs of BOG seed here myself. Just gave away a pack of Bogbubble (I'll get a clone) ...and have another one sitting here. Also have Lifesaver and a few Blue Moon rocks....and damn near the entire line up of Plan B gear. Gotta get poppin'!

I've seen massive buds from the Bogbubble before...

good luck

Those plants will never yield an ounce of dried buds...1/4 if your lucky. 3 gallon pots yield about 1-2 ounces per plant using a 1000 watt hps. This goes up to 2-3 ounces per in 5 gallon pots depending on veg time, strain...ect. Looks like so much on the plant but I bet dried and cured plants grown in 1 gallon pots using soil will rarely produce over 1/2 ounce even with my 1000 watt light. I veg mine 5 weeks under a t5 in 1 gallon grow bags. Then put them in the flower room for 2 weeks before transplanting them into there 5 gallon permanate pots. Remember 2-3 weeks of flower is very early and realistically most plants never finish in 8 weeks. Mine usually go 6-10 more weeks and yield as i have said above.
