The flex In plastics make transplanting a snap, tap or pound the sides (depending on size) and go,
Also keep containers inside clean and smooth.

Nursery workers do it that way, containers are to be had at any indoor garden supply and nurseries.

I mean I can’t find what you are referring to — I googled flex in plastics and found random kitchenware and shit. Do you just mean regular nursery containers?

Flexibility is just a general characteristic of plastic plant containers including Solo cups and cottage cheese containers all of which I used or have used.

Ok sorry, I thought you were referring to a specific type of pot. I concur as far as using nursery containers, etc. My current thinking is to use containers that are easy to transplant from, then finish in a cloth pot.

I wouldn't skip watering ever. You should be watering them daily. Just enough to drip a little bit out of the drain holes. If the main stem starts to lean too much you can tie it to a stake for a few weeks. Just know that if you stake it for too long, you will need to leave it in there forever or the plant will fall over. It should bounce back after it settles, just try not to stab anymore roots.

I’m sorry but watering every day is insane. To the point water is draining from the holes, daily? That is going to stunt a plant or kill it.

Way to much water for a plant that lost most it’s roots at transplant. It don’t have the root mass to deal with much water. Every day IS too much anytime. I wouldn’t even look at it for 3 or 4 days.
It’s a weed. Respect that :peace:

So I want to top my plant. Should I be cutting Lines number 1 or number 2? I don’t want to Do a fim. And I need to get the leaves on the inside some sunlight. She’s doing really good after couple days when I posted this thread. Left her alone for 2-3 days no water and she looks amazing. Thank you guys

That’s what happen to me and why it looked the way it did when I posted the thread. It was stunned from how much water I put in. I can’t ever get any runoff however, I’m using a jeria grow bag 5 gallons. I also cut hole in the side of it to be able to breathe a little bit. Seem really tight. Didn’t want to suffocate it. Let some oxygen flow thru the soil

Okay where should I top my plant at? I have the pic up there ^^

Suggest foliar spraying 1/10 H202 to water, (to keep her alive while providing oxygen reassuring your not overwatering a plant that needs to get adjusted) feed one more time, when you feel time is right then top wherever you feel is low enough for her to start.

My plants are outdoor in the day time so I suppose if your grow tent is cool enough then it would be too much, idk just use common sense. I never let my soil dry out completely and my plants are massive and thriving. I water once a day for 2 days and give them nutrients on the third day. Also, everyday isn't that insane if they're in breathable pots... that's the whole point of fabric pots. Elevate them on something if they're holding too much water so they can drain better.

Whatever works for you, that’s OK, but I could see someone overdoing it after reading that and watering a seedling to death...
