i was under the impression transplant stress is not really an issue for up potting plants. its more when you dig up an established plant and transplant it to another location because f the high risk of damage to the root zone

That makes a lot of sense too.

I think papasmurf99 is unto it and people transplanting dry plants and brittle roots.
Hydrated roots would be much more pliable and resilient compared to dry easily damaged roots. Just a thought but kinda makes sense.

Yeah i transplant whenever, straight into new coco light water for 2 days and the off she goes full watering. I'm using intra transfer cups now, so i Germ in coco jiffy > double solo cups with the bottom cut off the inside cup > into 1 gal geo pots with the velcro > then into 8l hempy buckets for 2 weeks then flip. That's the plan anyways nothing gets unsettled the whole way through, gunna run 10 plants each side of my 1.2x2.4

If you want to talk directly to someone. Put @bobqp Is an auto whore

I have 80 auto seedlings outdoor at the moment

I can honestly say I’ve never had a plant display transplant stress yet! It seems to me like they start kicking right off within the first 24hrs of the re pot. And I’ve noticed that every time. It makes me wonder what part of moving into a more comfortable set up would be stressful exactly? Anyway they’re just my thoughts.

Transplanted this one last night and she was already pretty wide but today she just spread right out. View attachment 4226994

Dont bother using the velcro, just tip em like a normal pot, velcro is useless on those flicking things.

Yes. And ...?

 

[Venus55]

you must be gentle when transplanting, mine never show stress either. Looks like some more monsters

I know. This time I’m really going to chop out the bottoms. Like last time I did that, but I was still pretty conservative. I’m going to go hell for leather this time lol cos I’m not going thru that helll of manicuring again!! Very close to 3p took me around a month to get thru I reckon. Tsk tsk

That's my plan next go aswell, no more shitty bottoms, gunna be ruthless

 

[OzCocoLoco]

Down to 30 seedlings, scraped 10 shitty looking ones.

Ran out of Perlite with 2 pots still to fill but should have them in by Wednesday and the irrigation set up by the weekend,then it's just transplant and cages left to go.

Fucking must have been a Red Belly nest around,have seen 6 of these little cunts over the weekend

 

[OzCocoLoco]

D.S.K x A11 almost done,another 2 days I reckon.

 

[Mullumbimby]

Little fuckers! That's the last thing you need

I don't mind the Red Bellies so much,it's the Browns and Tigers that are the worry but they don't tend to hang around where I grow luckily

 

[redeyedfrog]

We get a few browns this way, not very good wolirth snakes. They creep me out st yhe best of times..
