Well I transplanted into 18litre pots which is 4gall I think and I havent seen much difference in terms of yeild so far. I personally will not be putting my autos in anything bigger than 3gall from now on. If I were you I would let my plant go quite dry before watering (which the CJs like anyway) and gently lift the plant out of it's pot by the base of it's stem (when it is dry enough this should be easy) and see how rootbound it is.
CJ will stop its crazy growth spurt so repotting may be unessessary, to give you an idea, mine are about a week from harvest and the height ranges from 28" to about 35".

Looks like the image posting bug is still with us, cant full size em.
Harvest is fast approaching and I'm beginning to think I'll be pulling the CJs a few days before day 70. Critical+ is looking almost ripe and barely has any green leaves left. I've given her a good flush and she looks to be set for harvest in 4days. Critical+ is still swelling but is going to finnish as the poorest yeilder for sure. If you look at the pics I have posted you will see one that is taken under the HPS light. You can see a CJ bud next to a C+ bud. I'd hazard to say that the buds on the CJs are reaching twice the size.
2 of the CJs look as ripe as the C+ and I'm starting the flush today. Red hair numbers are well over 50% now and the sugar leaves are beginning to poke out to make the buds look more 'spikey'. I always take this as a sign of being close to maturity. The biggest and highest yeilding CJ is still suprisingly green and I feel I will be able to let it go a few days longer.
Last point I want to make, I've removed any popcorn that wasnt going anywhere and speed dried it. It weighed in at 3.5g dry, so it wasnt very much. I had a stressful week and had no smoke so I feel it was justified. Speed dried weed never tastes very good but I still enjoyed it, and I was defo very high afterwards! Pity abaout the chlorophil taste though.
Order of plant appearance - CJ3,CJ3 bud shot, C+, C+ cola shot, CJ1, CJ1 cola shot, C+bud vs. CJ bud, CJ2 and lastly CJ2 cola shot.

Thanks man, yeah I was a bit paranoid for a while there, your right these 4 girls have done well. All I did was give them a home
Some trich shots for you. I'm actually suprised to see so many clear trichs and so few amber. the long blade is off of the Critical+ and the other 2pics are from CJ.

The smells are really maturing now and the fruity aspect to the scent is comming forward, its becoming hard to take! Such an inviting smell. Due to confusion over the flower period on the Critical+ (checked websites and cant see any mention of its flower period now, strange because not that long ago I'm sure I checked and it was 65days for Critical+) I will probs just let her run as long as the CJs - to day 70, unless I see reason to do otherwise.
Its worth mentioning that I like my weed to be as 'high' enducing as possible and am not seeking a good couch lock. I gots stuff to be doing and I want to be able to puff early evening and still get that stuff done. So If I were to harvest by trichs alone I would be looking for almost all cloudy. I would definatly harvest when I see any significant sign of amber trichs.
I would say my girls are at around the 60% cloudy stage, depends where on the plant the sample is taken from though. Heading straight to Cloud City though, exactly where I wana be.
