Transplanting

[xX24nuggetsXx]

Hey so yesterday I topped my plants and all seemed to be going well but last night my ac timer didn’t turn off so my grow room went to 58f for the entire night and then my plants were also root bound so I’ve transplanted them today I was wondering how long transplant shock last or could it be a bigger issue due to such high amounts of stress due to different factors? I’ve given them a heavy feed of canna nutrients and calmag as I’m growing in coco and ph the water to 6.0

Well you did do several things at once which makes it hard to discern what is causing what. But...the general idea of transplant is to merge the plant into a larger container. Did you fully wet the new medium?

Nah I didn’t fully soak it I gave each plant 1 litre of water with 1100pm directly in the centre of around the base of the stem as soon as transplanted

Looks bone dry for coco

The only time I’ve had transplant shock was with veggies that had root issues to begin with

yeah it is dry I was told that I didn’t need to fully water the plant and to just water around the base of the plant so Ive given 1 litre of water at the base of the plant with 1100ppm to each plant would you suggest to give more water?

Not in coco. Not a coco guy but that should be watered/ w feed to runoff daily from basically day 1

Ok awesome thanks for the info I’ll definitely keep on top of it now, it’s only my second grow so got lots to learn

Water those until you get a good amount of runoff and see what happens

Ok. Yeah this was literally them 24 hours ago looking happy and healthy

Look at the difference in media moisture

Yeah I’ll give them a water and see if they perk back up

You got this buddy!
Your point about not watering fully is only for a new seedling put in a larger pot. When transplanting a healthy plant you water the new medium fully.

Thank you! Yeah I’ll definitely give it a big drink!

1 litre of water at the base of the plant with 1100ppm

Water until you get a good amount of runoff, daily. Never let it dry out. 1100ppm is high AF. These are at 1.0EC/500ppm in coco.

ok I’ll try that I’m guessing coco doesn’t have a big issue with over watering?
Nice plants! How old are they?

If done correctly, there shouldn't be any transplant shock.

definitely don’t think I’ve done it probably but I guess due to the other factors as stated above it’s hard to pin point but I don’t think it helped

If your plant is healthy, transplanting shouldn't be an issue. Make sure your medium is moist, not saturated, or dry.

Its good you can accept f ups and being a rookie and criticism. It will help more than you think
