I had heard it was bad, or at least pointless, to up-pot after flower.
depends on when you mean. I flip, then up-pot girls if I have regs, so I am up-potting 'after flower' technically. I think there's a certain point in later flower where giving the roots more room to grow is gonna generate vegetative growth, either making it look like a re-veg, or having continual foxtails that never finish.

When you do this, are the plants root bound by harvest time?
I vegged for 6 wks, 4.5 of that are in 2 gal bags.
Add another 10 days to show flower and they are seriously root bound.
After sorting for females they get up potted.
At harvest there is still a small bit of unused soil in the pot.
Usually good for a 10 to 12 wk water only grow.

I strive for a hands off, water only grow.
When I lived in Or and grew outdoors I had large raised beds.
Plants hardly ever showed deficiencies.
Ran 65s in the GH, they never ran short of nutrients.
Never watered more often than every 3 days.
Still learning this indoor stuff!

This has been one of my best water only indoor runs ever.
Been trying to figure out exactly why.
Probably a culmination of all!

1. I've run the temps from 68 to 78/80 which is 3 to 4 degrees cooler than usual?

2. Got lucky and hit the magic spot with my soil?
Lost count on how many times I've rerun and amended this soil.
Add a bag of worm castings and equal amounts vermiculite/pumice
and Coots mix each time I amend, buy a bag of OF when I have to.


When I dumped my last grow noticed they were a lot drier than I expected.

3. So this run been giving them 1qt of water every 3 days in 4 gals of soil
whether they look like they need it or not.
Worked some MBP into the surface a week or so back, that's all that I've done.

9 wks and they're all getting the chop today.
I've got a hospital visit coming up in 11 days.
Having a TAVR procedure done (aortic valve replacement) possibly 2 days stay.
Should be dry enough by then I can jar them up before I leave.
