Perfect time to drop her in a 3 gallon pot.. those roots are just getting ready to dig as deep as she stretches... 3 gallon wold make her pretty happy comparatively.

Before we say get a 10g or 5g,, how much room do you have to grow in.. can you use a 3G pot a 5 g pot? I stop at 3G for soil and 5G for DWC because of space. So if you have room.. more then 1.5 will be needed. Also more room = bigger plant = bigger pot needed. If your a CLF dresser grow1.5-2.5 will get you done.

I use 3 gallon pots with great success. Trying 1 gallon pots in a SOG grow. First time ever trying that so will see. If it doesn't work back to the 3 gallon pots.

If your plant is getting root bound ( water will go threw it faster and it will dry out qucik), you should UP pot to a bigger pot if you have the room to do it. Root bound plants can suffer if to root bound.
