I transplanted OG 1 & 3 yesterday I started with them in 6" pots and moved them into 12" pots.
I put hydroton into the bottom of each container.
Added some Botanicare soil less mix.
Took OG 1 out of her container. As you can see she had become root bound.
Put her in added some dirt and now she has more room.
Did the same with OG 3 as you can see shee too was root bound.
Now they're both in new homes. I had to trim them both down so they'd fit back in their area. I added hydroton on top too.

That it was Hank. I knew they'd be pretty root bound in those small pots for that long.
Ya it took me awhile to figure out what you meant, but I figured rebound was root bound.
14 of the girls are in flower but I still need to complete the room. I have concerns over the Lumitek digi ballasts and heat build up. They're mounted on a piece of plywood that's attached to the wall.
I'm also trying to figure out how to keep the heat down. It's a 4'x8' area 2 600W lights, cool air is being drawn in from the crawlspace by a 8" Vortek through the lights and vented to the attic. Right now only 1 light is in use and I'm still getting close to 80 in there. The veg room is also vented into flower, I was going to have it passive but it too is heating up, it's at 80 with 2 fans exhausting into flower.

Yes I realize that, unfortunately the body will only allow me to do so much. Was in a lot of pain after finishing that day and for the past few. But this too shall pass and I'll finish the rest, not much more to do, probably do it tomorrow. Have 18 of the 20 in there and many of the new clones will be going into soil soon. Not sure why my clones take so long to root.
No algae build up this time, at least I got that taken care of.Senor_Bueno

Socachi, Whats up buddy? glad to see u getting the swing of things with the greens. sending out some good vibes for ya. take care Bueno
SB glad to see you're back, yeah things are slowly turning around, Thanks.
Just put the last of the ladies in flower, the 14 have been in about a week now and added the others throughout the week as they got larger. So there's 21 in flower, 1 is a couple weeks ahead of the others, upper R corner of pic, the last was put in after pic was taken. Put the shorties in the middle.
Not sure why this one did this, but hey 2 for the price of 1.
After lights are out they all wilt but pick up when lights come back on. Is this typical? Pic was taken 2 days into flower.

Looking sweet broseph. Glad to see progress. Get lazy here and there, forget to check my threads. lol Will be checkin in on yur ladies! 
Did some work in the flower room today, made a stand for the flood table and installed the filter. Still more work to do though.
Here's what I used for the stand, got the idea from Stoney419 http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=77825&page=3.
Put the end caps on the legs and the 4 way T's
Added the cross members and the uprights that will hold the netting later.
Put the flood table on and discovered I should of made it 2" shorter. Oh well
Added the plants and we're back in business.
Here's the can filter I added and a shot of the 8" Vortex which was already installed.
Next I have to redo the ventilation from the veg into flower, pics to follow at a later date. And that date is when I get me lazy ass in gear.
