Thanks for the great insight RaceFan.

So just so that I understand... all things being equal in terms of light and temp, transplanting from seedling into a large enough pot to avoid becoming root bound, would not limit internodal stretch any more than using staged transplants.

The advantage would be that no transplanting would be necessary but the disadvantage would be that it may take a little longer for plant growth, because more energy would be directed toward root growth. The fact that energy is directed more toward growing roots will not affect the internodal lengths of the plant as it grows.

Does that about sum it up?
