Alright so my plant was in a party cup and wasint getting enough sun because it was gloomy all week and rainy. So my plan was to wait until it was like 2-3 weeks old and then transplant into hempy bucket. But I got kind of hasty and transplanted into the hempy bucket when it was about 1 and a half weeks because it was barely getting sun. So i cut off watering for about 3 days and then cut the party cup and took the plant along with the soil and buried it in the perlite. But as I was transplanting it the soil kind of broke and I had to try and hold the shape of the soil so my plant doesint get all fucked up. I think I might have shocked it or something. But basically the plant looks sad the leaves are all pointing down why? look at these pics. Not to mention that the two bottom leaves are turning yellow. You know those leaves that first sprout up

First: I think you probably did shock the shit outta her, she coulda tripled in size before being ready to transplant....

I'm no expert but I think you should put that little lady under a desk lamp...the sun is freakin' intense and I've always been told you give it to indoor ladies in increments before you leave them outside...you can't measure the lights intensity to the little plant through brightness or heat...(think about it...400, 600 or 1000w MH, HPS, LEDS are all TRYING to be the sun even though they're all way hotter)

I always start my babies under a desk lamp until they're 2-3 weeks old...even then....you should start vegging them with a CFL from walmart or something...they have decent 1's for 10 bucks you could veg with for awhile...IMO...I think you should give her a not so strong source of light and time to get back to normal.

hope she gets better!

i know when i xfer tomatoes, peppers etc outside, they get sunburned if i just straight up xfer em out there.. they need little bits of sun to get used to it since it is so intense.. never imagined a plant could get a sunburn....

to be honest if i where you i would put into soil, that perlite surely cant be good for it....... i may be wrong tho, have you seen this done before?

U shouldn't have stopped watering for 3 days,so that would have stressed it first up then it sounds like u might have damaged the roots during the transplant=more stress.

Just keep the water up to it,keep it outside just protect it from the arvo sun,i wouldve just left it where it was it didnt need to be moved yet.

I had to stop watering for a while before the transplant so the soil could be hard and compact so when I cut the cup it will hold its shape. But it didint I think its because I was using miracle gro moisture control soil
