Taproot transplant?

bobj1598 said:

Has anyone ever done this?

Long story short, I 'misplanted' my seed and ended up having to dig it up and put it towards the middle of the pot. I anticipated issues with this plant later on and in fact it's been the opposite: this plant is growing something incredible. The other plants, not so much, not anywhere near close to the rate of growth this plant has been growing at.

So I just want to know. Is there any science to suggest repotting a freshly developed taproot leads to better growth/less stress taken by the plant later on?

My experience is more like the opposite. If I botch sprouts and have to make adjustments usually things slow down.

You must be so proud to finally have a healthy plant at the beginning of flower. It only took…how long have you been growing? Over a decade?

Give it time I guess. I’m sure it’s about to self-immolate.

I like the wood skewers. I remember when my first plant was so poorly grown it couldn’t hold itself up and needed help.
