Hey everyone,

One last quick question:

Should i fill the pots with roots before i swap to 12/12?

Or should i up pot, give it a few weeks, then swap into 12/12 so they have more room to grow.

They have a few more weeks to go. But just so i can plan.

I like to up pot about 2 weeks before I flip. The roots will grow for the first few weeks of bloom, but the plant will switch to flower production after the stretch and root growth slows way down.

Same plant lol.

@Enforcer - Ty again dude.

It does look like the hydroton did what i wanted. Can see alot of dried up tips at the bottom, and lots of roots are branching. Rather than circling.

Also means it wasnt sitting in water this time as well. Yay. đź•ş

Update -

Im thinking outside of the watering/light issues.
Mag/S was lacking and that stunted them.

Finally starting to take off!
