but after the flowering cycle starts, you will not need root room, since most of the plants energy will go to flower production.
Although the problem is solved and this isn't gonna change what he needs to do..
I don't agree with that, I really think that's more myth than anything, I've read it time after time on all the boards. Years ago when I did a small indoor flouro grow, I used these clear plastic containers from pet food. Once they first started growing I noticed a root pressed up against the plastic on its way downward, this piqued my curiosity. After that I looked at the roots every once in a while to see how they were progressing, and while they may have slowed a bit during flower, I continued to witness noticeable growth when I picked 'em up to look.
Edit: When you think about it, they continue to grow a good bit during flower, makes sense that they would need more root system to support that extra plant matter.
