I have a severe problem and any advice would help please.....ok so my little baby is 2.5-3 weeks old and i just found out that we have termites in my house and go figure they were hiding in the drain holes in the bottom of my solo cup....so i immediately did an emergency transplant to rid the destroyers of anything solid....obviously there was no root ball formed yet so i washed up and carefully uprooted my baby and planted in a new cup with all new soil and watered it moderately being sure not to soak it out.....im sure my baby wont survive but does anyone have any encouraging advice for me?

Sure it will. Might survive, though. Best of luck. :leaf:
P.S. - Don't overwater. Let the top layer of soil dry a little before you water again.

as long as you didnt leave the roots exposed for long time and didnt just yank her out she might get alittle stressed but she should be fine, just like crazy said dont overwater but make sure you soak her good the first time to get all air pockets around roots filled in and then just water enough around plant to wet the root area. Good luck hope she pulls through for ya

Hi Stealthy, just curious, What did you think the termites would do to your girl? I have never heard of termites dinning on cannabis! They may have been hiding out in the bottom of the the cup, but I don't think they had any "munchie" plans for wet, viable roots. If this were the case, we would probably see a lot of trees falling over from termite infestations. Good luck & good grow......BB
