HELP! Plant too big for pot

[Cunjo420]

So I was hoping It will never come to this but, my plant is just too huge for her curent pot and she is slowly starting to produce buds(week 2-3). I am scared of re potting or transplsnt because I dont see it happening. Just too big of a deal and I would need like 2 guys to help me out plus big chance of damaging the roots. So my question is. Is there possibility I could finish flower in curent pot. Im pretty satisfied with size and number of bud sites(100+) but in same time Im worried what if roots fill whole pot(maybr they already did) can it die? I am happy to say I havent had any problems through her grow other than unnecessary branch cutting, never had any deficiencies. Pretty pessimistic with pot and roots since I cant see underneath the soil god knows whats happening there. And I dont know much about roots tbh other than they spread hahaha

I think you will be fine. I would leave it alone as it has done quite well so far and you are in the home stretch. However, it could benefit from some selective defoliation to allow more sunlight to hit all of the buds as well as concentrate growing power to the buds instead of the big fan leaves. See growweedeasy.com and look under plant training.

Trust me I am introduced to defoliation but it gives me headache. In her 4 month of life ive defoliated hundreds of leaves and she just bush out supper hard becUse I did too much topping and fimming in early stage. And few days ago I had some kind of big defoliation. About 70 80to 100 leaves. She is still bushy. I will defoliate in phases. Because Im still not sure what specifically to defoliate. Dont want to ruin yield. And I am not sure about big fan leaves just under branches with bud sites. I hope you understood me. If you can help me on what to defoliate would be thankful

Ive just read it plant training topic. And it says only indoor plants should defoliste haha

Don't transplant it. Grow it out - careful which leaves you snip off now cuz at this stage they probably won't grow back.

Whatever you read saying defoliation is only an indoor thing is not accurate! If I didnt defoliate my outdoor girls harvest would be a bigger nightmare, it already usually takes me and 2-3 people roughly a week and a half on average, but I've got a fairly large garden too. I agree, leave it where it is and let her do her thing, transplant now could harm her more than help.

Thats what we talked bout previously and I did defoliate many times and it showed helpfull but I am confused of so much different information from many sources on same topic.

[Cunjo420]

Im rly lost

[Cunjo420]

From GWE guide plant training as guy earlier recommended me to read it

[Smerft85]

So your own trials have shown defoliation is working well on an outdoor plant, no reason to be confused, you have learned for yourself. Personal experiences can outweigh internet advise heavily!

[Cunjo420]

Thumbs up. I guess only way to truly understand the plant is by experience. No one can teach you what you see happening everyday with your girls by your eyes

Worst case scenario you’ll be watering several times a day
