So my girls are 3 weeks old today from seed standing at around 5 to 6 inches tall, currently in 3l pots. I've got some 20l fabric pots and wondered when would be best to re pot them to the fabric pots? Do I do it now or finishing vegging them first then re pot them?

When do you plan on flipping? I try to transplant /flip within one week of final up potting.
This gives me 5 or six weeks not having to worry about nitrogen and other micros...works out decently for me.
Peace.

I like to repot when they have a nice root system almost bound by the pot. Then transplant to my final pots and give them 2 weeks to root out before flip. Usually 5 weeks from seed or 3 to 4 weeks from cuttings

I'd leave them where they are for a few weeks. When they need to be watered everyday is your que to transplant. OR, when they droop a lot and watering doesn't perk them up.

Thanks for advise. I find they don't need watering much at the mo only about every 3-4 days. Would you recommend starting lst now or wait a bit?

I've seen people do it pretty early but I don't really like doing it myself until I see about 4/5 nodes and they're big enough to take clones but that's my backwards way of doing it. I've had some strange results with my training lately so maybe someone else could chime in haha. Many strains I've grown without any training for the first grow so I can see their structure, etc. so I'll know what to do with their clones. And then sometimes I'll just go ahead and mainline (4 or 8 colas) if I want to delay flowering usually due to no room in the flower room.
