I bet they'll be fine, transplanting to a different medium is a huge shock for the roots. Those plants have alot of adjustments to make.

Thanks as usual gypsy ya bastard
But until i see shit get right with my girls sittin in the water, im gonna be doin half of the grow in soil, just as a comparitive experiment more than anything else man. Its time to move up in the world potsize wise, cuz i can see the roots startin to cramp up at the bottom of my starter pots. So im gonna hook them up with some 3 gallon growbag action. Goin out to pick up a big ole bag of ocean forest, n some dolemite lime, some perlite, n gonna get to work tonight with half the grow - well im gonna do 4 in soil, 3 in dro, n gonna keep 1 as a mother. If the hydro works out, then im gonna grab myself a nice big container, and ill just keep doin lollipops in the one container while my soil is finishin up later in the grow.
N i know i bin annoying as shit complainin n botherin you guys askin for help n advice about the same god damn thing for the last week n a half, lol, but i just get nervous whenever im tryin somethin that i dont know what to do with. When i started my 1st grow i was runnin around like a chikkin with my head cut off askin people for help all over the place man. You would think that someone was about to die for fucks sake. So i just wanna give out a big ass THANK YOU to GypsyBush n ThunderCat for hookin me up with some advice n just tellin me to shut the fuck up n calm the fuck down in general, lol. God knows i needed that shit. You guys rock and have been helpin me out since halfway through my 1st grow. Im in you guys debt.
for those of you guys who wanted to see me change my whole grow to hydro, sorry to disappoint, but when im cuttin it this close to transplant, i needed to make a split descision on wether to wait the extra week, and change it all out to dro, or to keep shit as it is right now with the half n half, n then see how it works out, n if it does, ill probably do dro from here on out. It really IS easier to do than soil, i really do like that about it, but for not seein anything bounce back, its just too close to call to make a descision like that, and then me possibly fucking everything up n have to start from scratch. So i took the chance with half of the crop. We shall see whats what...

Hydro works well with clones...
Stop fucking with your plants...
Keep what is in the DWC there, what is in soil in soil...
Set up your mothers...
Next grow, start with clones in hydro from the get go...
QUIT STRESSING YOUR PLANTS OUT!!!!

I am proud to see your plants on the DWC...

Lol King the stress is the one thing we kept tellin you with your first grow. Plants don't like it. I've heard of additives you can give them to relax them, like plant zanex. Off hand I can't remember what its called sorry,
.If the tent was causeing the yellowing, then you've got that fixed. It seems like the ones you have transplanted have survived, and you are gonna put the others into Big grow bags, right. Your gonna be fine, if you quit stresssin them bro, they will turn into some sexy bitchs. Once you get a mother plant(s) you can clone them, and put the clones into hydro. It'll work great. If you can keep your mother seperate you could put the clones directly into 12/12 and get a perpetual harvest going.
Your gonna be good bro just
and watch the grass grow!

lol, i love how gypsy sounds all pissed off when hes tellin me to leave my fuckinplants alone, almost like he wants to come n slap me for not stoppin the changes i make, hehe. Its all good though, like i said before im done fuckin with them - everything is stayin the way it is, and ill be growin a mother in this batch for sure, n like i said, ill be lollipoppin as many clones as i can before i move out. Already got my dwc cloner made, n everything is as it should be. Once i was done hookin everything up, it felt like a lightbulb came on in my head, n the clouds parted, n all seemed right with the fuckin world man. I am officially happy with the way i have shit set up for the first time since i started this grow. Now i can finally fuckin relax. 
FUCK - i forgot to tell u gypsy, today when i checked my rez n the ph n everything this mornin, the rez was full of frothy white bubbles,instead of diffused, oxygenated bubbles. It looked like somethin was wrong, so i emptied out the rez, wiped down the box, and refilled n ph'd the water, n put a tsp of H202 in the rez. No more wierd lookin bubbles. N dont worry man, i did all that before i put the plant back in, lol.

fuck yeah it is dk, lol - its my dream. to be able to grow bud on autopilot would be fuckin awesome. But in the same turn, i would be bored outta my skull!! i love havin shit to do n tend to everyday with my plants man. Even though its a bitch sometimes tryin to figure shit out, its therapeutic for sure. Im a much less stressed out person nowadays - n i gotta contribute it to growin ganj. I mean, smokin it relieves stress on a temporary level, but growin it, just a zen-ish experience man, for sure.

exactly. its nice to be able to just sit back and relax but at the same you find yourself bored and wanting to go fuck around and make some adjustments here or there... just yesterday i rigged up my fans differently and velcroed the ducting to the top of my door so i can exhaust the hot air during the day and then take it down at night... i think i must have said OK I AM COMPLETELY DONE WITH MY SETUP at least a thousand times by now...

No shit...lol...
Making small changes and upgrading is one thing... but transplanting 18.7 times in the first 2 weeks is a bit excessive... i think...lol...
Patience is one of the most important lessons that humans can learn from plants...
K1Ng5p4d3 said:
Hahahaha.. nah man... no slapping... just trying to make a point... and you seem to respond better to that than my earlier, gentler suggestions...lol....
K1Ng5p4d3 said:
Yeah... I have had that... just change the water and it was all good...
Preventative maintenance works better than waiting for shit to hit the fan and then try to fix it...
Cheers bro...

18.7 times??? where do you get these figures gypsy!

ROFLMAO...!!!!!!
.. well, I subdivide the number pm's, by the number of times that I heard "OH FUCK!!!!"....
Then, I take into consideration the Earth's gravitational pull, followed by the Coriolis effect, and last but not least we multiply everything byt the number or atoms present in a burst of Aurora Borealis, when it is displaying the color RED, which amongst the Yup'ik Eskimos of the far North mean change, in form of the "bleeding sky"...
So after all that math.. and some more Gypsy shannenegans... you get that result...lol....
