Don’t want to get into what size pots or soil I am using as ppl tend to lash out or say that is the problem, I have more than a few grows under my belt and assure you it works. My space doesn’t allow for bigger pots so don’t want to get into that, also using plastic pots, can’t use fabric as water leaks from the side, again, my space doesn’t allow for that. My opinion based on experience is that yes plants go root bound if you wait to transplant but if (and I just had this happen) you transplant when plant roots just start poking out the bottom of containers, then the plant is much more likely to come apart after you get the entire root ball intact out of the pot, since the roots haven’t completely grown and most importantly anchored the plant properly. I find if you wait a few days to a week after you see roots at bottom of container then the plant roots will be able to hold the soil together without crumbling.
Back to my grow:
1) using Iguana Juice Grow by dr Hornby, the OG bottle.
2) Bubba Kush by Crop King Seeds. Fems
3) Promix and perlite 60/40
I usually don’t feed at all during veg because my plants look green and healthy, but I am wondering if I decide to feed, if that would increase my root mass or force the plant to produce more growth even if rootbound, which I know it needs a transplant, but again waiting as if you destroy some of the root ball during transplant the plant will be shocked for much longer than if roots were in prime condition. Also wondering if Iguana Juice will increase root mass or if I should invest in a root booster? Right now thinking of voodoo juice. Does anyone have any experience with this product or any other root mass expanders? Thanks again super appreciate it
