Yes mate 11ltr pot's are about right for there final pot's aslong as you have the height/room in your grow space because the bigger the pot's the bigger the plants will finish.

Another good thing to remember is after you repotted them into there final pot's always give them a week or two more veg before going 12/12 (flower) and this gives the plants time to get over any stress after the repot and also gives the roots time to root into the new soil.

Nice one, this thread covers what I wanted to know. How to repot your pot, and what size pot you want your pot to grow in.

if your bothered about damaging roots during transplant and you know its a lady then why not just stick it in a big pot to start with surely it would grow bigger faster because theres more room for the plant to grow a nice big root ball with out it ever getting restricted.i do this with the cuts i make into new mother plants and it works very well they seem to get really big a lot quicker in my own experience anyway.

What happens to your plant if you don't repot them into a big enough pot. Will they die, or will they live and not grow as big?

Is it best to let the soil be a little dry or damp when doing a re-pot ? i was thinking it would just fall appart but after looking at the pics i suppose the root system will be holding it all together right ?
