To add the bottom leaves will start to yellow and fall off.

The best way to check if your plants are rootbound is to remove your plants from their containers.

Transplanting is changing the container. Put it back after checking and you haven't transplanted.

Are there trick questions?

 

[GardenFaerie]

Someone can answer that. How can a plant in the ground become root bound?

 

[TrysHard]

That was add to my prior post. I assumed since the question was about being root bound that it was in a pot.

TRAR team doesn't give opinions until after we have a few answers Mascot

 

[Lester Freeman]

If it's In the ground how can it be rootbound?

The roots will grow beyond the hole that the plant was transplanted into, if there is a much larger root from a tree underneath that has gone unseen, or even big boulders/rocks down there, this can slow down the root growth by acting as sort of a roadblock

 

[scottish]

Oh I would of had time for a longer answer well growth will slow and not form properly if rootbound also as others said look through the holes also as I said ease out of pot but growth is best way to tell and slight discoloration

While we're pondering #1, hit em with the 2nd question Princess DIY. (Thought I forgot about that one didn't you? LOL...)

 

[trichomes]

plant will lift from the pot in one piece is one way, or,

i'd cut hinged door into the side of the pot, if plant did not want to slide out

also look thru bottom holes, you could make those bigger to view as well

Question 2

I should harvest when trichomes are about 1/3 amber. When should I begin the 2 week flush? The trichs will be way more than 1/3 after the 2 weeks. Should I start flush at 50/50 clear/cloudy?

[trichomes]

we should wait to award #1 b4 going to 2

 

[TrysHard]

I would think that roots can come out of the bottom without it being root bound. Also a plant in a 20 Gal pot is hard to lift, I mean it could be a 20' indoor sativa grown in a gym. So reading the plants condition is the way to tell without having to pull up all your plants to check.

It's not about the game, its about the info. Preach on Scotty.

[Jimmy6000]

For ? 1...I think RL,Scottish and Tryshard's answer's combined would be the route I would take.
So how ever you want to dice it.They all make sence.

 

[Lady Cannafan]
