Thanks cof, I went ahead and put them into two gallon pots. I didn't water them for a day and they were rather wilted this morning. It's easier to repot when the plant is good and dry but I didn't want it wilted. Anyway after the transplant and a drink of water a few hours later and the looked back to life again. I'll have a better idea in the morning of how they are doing.Head Up
I recently repotted everything in the bloom room with little or no problem other than slowing the growth for a week while the roots re-established and then the plants took off. It also cured some ills from a poor medium.

Think of it this way, it's like twins who look nothing alike.
Environment will bring out different nuances of a plant, most assuredly, but I don't think that is phenotype. Phenotype is again think of twins, one has black hair the other red.
Good example DST, same plants, same genes but the different environments allow different genes to be expressed.
well im not heads up,but this is a "headsup" on my take on veg....
under the 600!
Welcome to the club harli... I hope you like fast moving threads with lots of good info, good times, and beautiful buds. Man is it going to be hard to wait till august or what. Welcome again.
Pretty much the same thing I do except I don't cover my seedlings with a wrap nor do I start them in party cups. I start in peat pellets and once sprouted I then put the pellet into a party cup. I do cover the peat pellets to keep them moist, I just turn a glass upside down over them until the bean sprouts. I use two 23 watt? cfl's? for starting my babies and when they get too big for the lights they then go into my tent under t-5's. I use two 5600k and two 4100k for vegging. At most my plants now veg for about four weeks maybe a touch less. I used to veg them for six and the only real difference I've seen was in a sativa grow. I don't know if the extra two weeks of veg for an indica is really worth it??? I do however think building a good root system by transplanting a couple of times works very well and helps increase your yield. I like to let my root system really get going before transplanting into a bigger container. A seed put directly into a three gallon pot won't develop the root system a seed started in party cups and then transplanted a couple of times into a three gallon pot will develop. I've also noticed depending on the size of your container. It seems to me a plant has to fill any container with a certain amount of roots before it will start to flower. If I transplant from a one gallon container into a three gallon container right before switching to 12/12, it is going to take that plant some time to put out more roots until it fills the container with enough roots and then it starts flowering. Might take two weeks of 12/12 to start seeing pistils. These are just some things I've noticed as time passes and I gain more experience. Again, all conjecture on my part, I'm not a damn scientist.well im not heads up,but this is a "headsup" on my take on veg....
i start all my seeds in party cups with press-n-seal wrap on top,once seed is up and seed shell is off<this is when i start my "seedling stage",the dome stays on for one week,i then take the dome/wpap off the cups,<<all of that is done under a 13watt light.
i then move the plants to the t-5's for 2 weeks of "pre-veg",at this point they have two nodes,after two weeks of pre-veg,i have a nice root ball,on a 4-5 node plant
now to my veg,i transplant plants into what ever pots they will be in,3-5 gal pots,now
its time to veg to the size i desire
Headsup ive grown the super skunk out and it was a nice smoke. I also have the tangerine dream that i did not grow myself but it is some fucking kill. Smells really strong citrus more grape fruity i think than tangerine, and has a uppity hiiiiiiighhh.
so when you say 2-3 weeks veg thats not what my plant would look like, i count my veg from the day the seedling opens up and turns green. but my plants grow under 600's from only a few days old so can be a lot bigger than those grown under smaller lights.well im not heads up,but this is a "headsup" on my take on veg....

my temps are currently sitting at 88-93F so yeah around 32C. I dont think its had too much of an impact though, they started out at this maybe a 80-85 last month. but they are growing fine, in fact these plants are budding faster than they have in previous grows. hmm. Anyway, the big thing with me right now is still dealing with heat. Keeping below 32 is tough right now.

I know I always ask this and i shouldnt but im going to anyway lol.
