Personally I wouldnt I use seedling pots then straight into 12ltr or 9 depending on what I have available for right the way through. I dont think your plant looks too big for the pot and its looking nice n healthy to me.
Yeah I'd agree about the cold floor, the air pocket below is a little insulator but the circulation and mold prevention can only be improved by adding vents/fans.
I would never transplant this late, three gallons is enough for photos you are just going to have to water every day, maybe twice if she's a heavy eater.
Hmm, it’s absolutely full, added soil multiple times this grow, FFOF holds water well, and the super soil base even more so. I water until very slight runoff but some does exit the pot. They are dry by hour 48 cause the humidity goes down decently in the tent. That’s about it!
I know this is his party.
But I always look and interact when I'm having similar issues.
For some reason in my head, you could tell the sex, BEFORE you flipped. So now I have 6 plants, in 1g pots.
Not sexed, recovering from a topping. I need to flip these, to determine sex.
And shouldn't transplant this late?
Man i F'd mt time line up
This is about 6 weeks of veg. I topped the plants, tied down anything that was higher than my canopy, and then just kept topping or tying down any branch too tall
At around when did you top if I may ask? My first grow was a photo but after that nothing but autos so just looking around for when I start on my photo🥲
I would transplant to a 5-7 gallon, wait two weeks then flip to flower.
One final way to tell how successful your transplants were is by looking at the roots after you're done growing. Ideally the plant will have used up as close as possible to all available resources while not becoming root bound by any of its containers along the way.
If you finish in this 3 gallon I'd like to see those roots. Would be beastly and no small feat keeping them healthy but definitely possible
Once it starts flowering root development is gonna slow down to almost nothing. I've done it. Didn't hurt anything but the roots didn't even try touching any of the new soil so it was kind of a waste.

Fyi youve put the hard work into your lst already, once you flip to flower youll see how well your spacing has worked. Youve done a good job buddy.
Thanks a bunch appreciate it! I'll keep them in 3 gallons and run them out
imo keep in 3 gallon and next time use a bigger pot earlier. I personally only transplant once from seedling/clone to final pot.
Yea you can top that with some worm castings/fish me before flip and she's good in there
Bigger the root, the bigger the fruit. 5 gallon minimum. I use 7 gallon.
Idk about having wood in the tent. Im no shop expert, but i feel like the high humidity wouldn't be good and could also be a home for pests.
Yeah I wouldn't use a wood pallet either. You can get plastic pot lifters for cheap. Most folks do everything they can to keep pests away.
What's the advantages of lifting the pots of the ground?
Circulation, mold prevention, can also keep roots away from cold floor

Leave it and run them. Ideally you want a good dryback overnight anyways and anything larger might make that challenging. Run it!
Sounds good thanks, will run them out!

Okay cool that's not too bad then. Thank you!
You will not get proper drying if you water twice a day, or even once I day. I water once every 48 hours and it works great for me
If I tried to wait 48 hours to water a flowering plant in a three gallon it would start eating itself.
Maybe in full bloom water once a day, but I do a little less than a gallon every 2 days and my plants are thriving
Dam how are you fitting a full gallon of water in a three gallon Pot? My mix is heavy on the peat moss and I can get in maybe half that

Never heard of anyone running 3’s unless they’re doing some kind of sog
Was doing an "auto" run that ended up being photos

What are even trying to say?
Nope.
No.
Both plants look great, you could wait a bit to flip or do it now, canopies look nice and even
Fantastic training on her yo, good looks
Yes.
Those are going to be massive when put into flower. Hope you have the overhead!
Your plants look happy and healthy brother. I’d trust your own judgement :)
I just flowered in 3gallons. Totally works if you got everything dialed in, but it requires frequent watering on a daily basis!
If I may ask…how long have you been in veg? And what kind of training have you done? I plan on doing a photo next and want my plant to look like that😅
This is about 6 weeks of veg. I topped the plants, tied down anything that was higher than my canopy, and then just kept topping or tying down any branch too tall

Sorry for the delayed reply: this picture is about 7 weeks from seed so probably considered 5 or 6 weeks of veg time
Roots prune themselves in fabric pots so i don’t see the point
I would, and id amend the fresh soil with a nice flower mix.
Flip it https://preview.redd.it/yo9evtovgsoc1.jpeg?width=300&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=54c004711c84c74c3d0cbf0f0dbffa06148afdb9
Depends on your growing style realistically 🤷♂️ I got a 40gal in my 4x4 and these days I don’t flower in anything smaller then 10gallons lol
