Do you think a plant should have some recovery time from transplant before starting 12/12? Continue veg for a week before flip? Transplant shock won't effect the veg to flower transition too much? Anybody see any major delays in the flower stretch?
This is understandable. I only ask because my final container for a few plants will be in a large no til tub. Very difficult to move into the flower tent once soil and plants are in it.I would give it at least 2 weeks between the two events, since too much going on at once is pretty stressful, and the plant is going to need some time to grow new and expanded roots. Since things usually stall a little after transplanting, I'd wait until they are growing robustly again before turning the light back. Just my 2 Cents.
I agree.Why wait another two weeks after the transplanting?I think you will just loose the advantage of the transplanting if you wait so long....Even week seems too much...May be 2,3 days if you think it is needed....Transplanting should make them more comfortable at the end,it gives them space and so much new soil and ferts.the opposite,to stress them ,I don't find that normal and it is not usual:)They should be happy right after this or the gardener don't do it right;)I veg in 5 gallon containers of Promix BX 1000w Gavita, or Hortilux HPS 1000w and then transplant into 15-20 gallon containers, go directly into flowering, and the plants are rootbound by the time theyre done. As long as the roots aren't damaged during transplant, I think if you wait 2 weeks, they will just be 2 weeks more rootbound in the end.
I can usually lift the whole 20 gallons of medium by the stalk when my plants are done. Totally rootbound.
They'll do it in 30 gallons too. Strain dependent.
If transplanting is done properly and with a full healthy rootball I have seen new growth within a couple of hours and nice happy leaves.
I agree if your worried about timing/scheduling I would just put it into flower after a day or two, I’ve transplanted and launched could have got bigger but it still works out fine if your healthyIn my experience transplanting to the final pot straight into flower assuming a healthy plant will do no harm.
It may kind of stall for a week while it adjusts though. I have seen them just take right off too.
I like to veg a week to establish some more roots first.
Well, I heard that it caused greater phenotypic at expression so I tried it. I didn’t see any change in my yields and I never switched back.why do you run it 11/13 from the start?
What is your average yield and ive been told only in the last 2 week to switch to 11/13 and it can help finish the plant earlyWell, I heard that it caused greater phenotypic at expression so I tried it. I didn’t see any change in my yields and I never switched back.
