[4smokersonly]

i recently (about 4wks) transplanted a 2wk old rooted clone i had vegg'n under 1000w to a outdoor location and when i first re-planted it i didn't do a great job on prep'n my local so after 2wks i moved it to a much better local with pro mix soil, 8hrs of direct over head sun light i started feed the plant last week a 1/4 tspn of mg 18-18-21 tomato feed to 1gal of water ( i know im late as hell feeding her)..now all a long i notice very little growth in the plant (no way am i gettin a inch a day) keep in mind its not dying it looks healthy it just not gaining height and its been vegg'n for a total of 6wks total and its small? any ideas why when the plant is not dying,burnt, or anything of that nature...please help

P.S.
here is a photo of it now ..oh yeah and its G-13

Not a healthy plant imo. Water/feed more often. 1 gal every 2 days and it'll be healthy again.

Don't listen to that guy watering and feeding a gallon every 2 days is NOT what you want to do lol... The plant more than likely recieved a great deal of shock from 2 transplants in a row. Give it a couple weeks and you should start seeing good growth again. Until then water when soil is DRY and only then. Watch the nutes, the plant is trying to recover.

lol?

Works great for me. I guess it depends on the clay/sand content of your soil to an extent but that is an entirely reasonable feeding schedule.

I'm not cutting you down, that schedule may work great for your situation but that doesn't mean it is best suited for his. That plant is under tremendous stress and needs time to recover. Overwatering and over nutes will only add to its troubles right now.

I had nearly the exact same situation a month ago. That's what I did and everything turned out great. I can go take a picture of the results if you like.

that would be cool Dan..both you guys have given me something to consider maybe give it a week or two see if it bounce back if not try the switch my watering scheduled

Ok. I'll brb then. Hopefully someone else will offer a 3rd opinion too.

That's probably a good plan though.

ok. here it is. I had to transplant these twice in a 3 week period. They were very unhappy about it, but recovered pretty quickly.

What I did was dig little moats outside the dirt around the main root mass/old soil about 4-6" on each side and filled them with foxfarm/perilite. Then when I water those moats very heavily and give only a little water to the main root mass. This is to get the roots to stretch for water, getting them to expand and adapt to their new environment.

I can't promise that'll solve your problems, but it worked for me.

those look amazing Dan wow nice... i think i might do that whole foxfarm/perilite thing i'ma give it a week see what happens from there

Thx man.

In your case I'd be careful with messing around with the soil near the roots. Probably too late to add stuff like perilite. It'll risk shocking your plants further. However I still think it's a good idea to dig a small moat around the outside of your plant in order to get more water into the new soil so your roots will stretch for it. The sooner the roots grow into the plants new environment, the happier your plant will be and the sooner it'll start growing again.
