When to Repot

[Prehensile]

Last Thursday I saw the need to repot about 40 Scorpions, I ran out of pots and didn't get the new ones till 2 days ago, the pic shows the difference in growth over a 5 day period. as you can see it is substantial, all the plants in the 2 pics are the same age, always plan ahead chillieheads!!

it's funny how quickly they can take over the size of the pot u put them in. I got so many palnts and not enough pots right now that when i do put them in something bigger they expand quickly just like this.

I'd pot them up when they are a foot to a foot and a half tall. I noticed that the plants I have , I didnt pot them up soon enough and the growth didnt shoot through the roof like my others did

I used to repot a plant a few times, but realized it's a lot of work having to repot 2-3 times if you have 20+ plants. Now I grow them in 1 gallon pots until they are 12" and pot them up to their final home.

I start mine from seed sewn into 3" cups and transplant direct to 5 gallon buckets or the ground when I think the frost date has passed. This costs me a few weeks of grow time indoors but I'm always trying to find ways to reduce the time and labor spent.

It would take me forever to pot all my plants up to 5 gallon pots at once
