How early can you repot?

I have three small plants going now in small pots. One is about two weeks older than the others, and ought to be re-potted (it's about eight inches tall). The other two are only about four or five inches. Would I have any issues with re-potting all three? Or should I let the smaller ones build up their roots a few more days?

I usually do it around 20-25 days from the Solo cup.
I guess around 4-5 inches or so.View attachment 2919741

you can repot or transplant anytime during veg. just don't do it during flower.

you can transplant whenever you want. i have transplanted in flower many times with no problems. if you leave plants in a small container too long, it can stunt. this happened to me recently. i got some clones from my neighbor. i found out he had them in half gallon containers for a good month. i transplanted to larger pots and they only grew a few inches and stopped.

Great! Into the Smart Pots they go.

Transplant whenever, usually you will know it is time when you see the roots poke thru your drainage holes and such. Avoid watering prior to transplanting, which will make the media significantly heavier and could lead to damage/broken root ball if the root system isn't really strong and grown in yet.

You can transplant during bloom, but in my experience it should be done prior to about 4 weeks in and the earlier the better. Depending on the strain, after about 4 weeks into bloom the roots pretty much stop growing.
