Let's just get transplanting. I'll start by saying you won't see me with rockwool clones. I've always been a fan of rooting clones in potting soil, and found it to be no more difficult than oasis or rockwool. My soil is BioTerra Plus with 20% grade #3 perlite. I wet the transplant media with RO water, and also mixed in four ounces of HN granular mycorrhizae when I mixed in the perlite.

Picture 2: Healthy Roots
White roots are healthy. This whole batch could have been more root bound, but as long as they are healthy it's okay to transplant. Ganja likes to send tap roots and shallow pots like these starter 2x2 pots are really too small for robust growth (vertical and stem girth).

I'm testing this product. It is only endo-myco and humic. No Tricho, no ecto-myco, and no bacteria. Recent research indicates Trichoderma may be inhibiting endomyco colonization. I believe HN made this product for transplant and early inoculations, to recognize this idea.
Picture 4: The Sprinkle
Just a little, and I sprinkled a little directly on the roots as well. This inoculant is a soft white powder.
Picture 5: The "Gold" Peat
This is the magic ingedient. These monster peat aggregates are what ensure long-term aeration and replace perlite. This peat is like none other, and in all my years I have never found such a high quality sphagnum peat, or other peat, product. The water retention is very low, and it doesn't breakdown very fast.

To transplant prepare your pots as above, and make sure to leave plenty of room for the root ball. I like to water very minimally after transplant. Take your time and have a system. Be very gentle with the exposed roots and NEVER transplant dry. I like to transplant while nice and moist. I find gently patting the media down to form an even layer helps water penetrate evenly.
This pict is a couple weeks later. All I've added is a little molasses. Just another day in the garden.
