Hello I am new to indoor growing and has popped some fastbuds autoflower crystal meth and west coast og strains..well I was unaware you couldn't transplant autos and I am currently in a dilemma I have 6 plants in 1 gallon size pots they are about 5 weeks into grow have no flowers yet stand about 20-26inches from top of pot my question is should I finish growing out in 1 gallon pots or transplant?any and all help would be appreciated thank you

Welcome to AFN!
You can transplant if your careful, try not to disturb the roots when you do transplant. Auto's have sensitive roots and they can be stunted easily. I found it best to let the soil dry so it sticks together somewhat before transplanting.

5 weeks old and no flowers? Are there preflowers, pistols appearing?
What's your medium and light source?

They should be starting to build some flowers pretty soon. It is best to start your auto's in their final pot, just less of a chance to stunt them. I start them in solo's quite often and put them in their final pot by 8-10 days old before the main root hits the bottom of the cup.

That is what I have read in research but I wasn't quiet sure if they were autos so I started in 1 gallon next time I will have in 3 gallon pots

So should I transplant or would it stress them?if I keep them in 1 gallon what would be estimated yield if possible to

I'd transplant them asap, I'm sure it will help your yield. I've grown everyone of their strains. Both of those are pretty good quality and stink, 2-3 oz a plant.

Ok will do asap.how did you like growing them?about when did they flower for you?and harvest from seed?how tall/wide did they get?when you grew how big were your pots and light set up?how was harvest? Do you have a grow journal on them?

They grow pretty nicely for the most part, you'll see 2-3 pheno types in each strain. I usually saw sex by 21 days in all their strains followed by a stretching period of a 2-3 weeks then they get busy with making flowers. I honestly haven;t grown their gear in about a year, I've been growing Mephisto for my meds. I like the quality of their work more and you can order direct in the states, a huge plus. I grow with 3-7 gallon airpots in soil under my own DIY Cobs. Bigger pots bigger yields for the most part, dependent on strain of course. What your growing should be medium sized plants in a decent sized pot, 30" plus or minus, 3 gallon pots or more. I did do a few Fastbuds journals, but not these strains. Check out the Fastbuds section on here, there are a lot of journals there. Days worth of reading.

Happy growing!
