Update/More Help Needed! ;) <3

[gravitybound]

Well, I transplanted my plants into some better soil, and bigger pots.....Some aren't doing so hot. Please ignore how wet the soil may look, because I took this picture right after watering....(Of course, when I went to transplant, the soil seemed super dry/crumbly....)

I finally got a thermometer/humidity monitor, and found that my temp was at 91 degrees....so I lowered my thermostat a bit, and cracked the closet door some. So maybe they were just getting too hot?



I swear, once I get the hang of this, I'll stop being such a needy bitch

one looks good. the others look dead i'm afraid. i'm guessing you transplanted them bear roots? if so you probably damaged it irreparably during transplant. got any more seeds?

the pots are not wet in those pictures u provide , u should water throughly ( thats through-fully but im not sure how's the word) especially in transplants with new soil , in order to get ... dunno whats the correct words but in order to get homogenized as soil it needs 1st to get crumbled and get very airy and then water as much as it gets evenly dump to the bone ( it may need the volume of the pot in water to do so

Hej babe, well, they dont look too heathy to me... a little small for transplanting into such a big pot... maybe next time either sow seeds or take cuttings into lil rockwool cubes then just place them into the bigger blocks, then when the roots pop out the bottom plant into the soil, the blocks hold load ov air so should stop the damping off problem. Also its best to water the soil first then when its stoped being stodgy wet, then transplant...
plants hate going into large pots so early on in their lives (maybe they get agrophobic!!) so only pot into a slightly larger one each time until at the required size then grow on...
When transplanting try to keep as much soil on the roots as possible to minimise transplant shock...

Hope that helps some.

the rule of the thumb says never transplant seedings and thats because u want when u are on transplant to have a healthy plant that can take down some root damage , the same rule says also to discard as much old soil u can up to the point where a lot roots start to brake( just before that point) , the most crucial thing for less stress is the time needed for the transplant , i never do all trhe transplants needed at once over many plants but i go like 4-5 a day and thats because i set all things ready and handy like the cooking programs , i set the soil , water canister and all , from the time i flip the pot so to seperate the soil/plant from it to the time that im throwing water i try not to exceed half a minute , if i do it really smooth and quik the plants never get any shock at all and 12 hours later continue growing with added vigorusity , it seems to me that the watering itself makes the shock of stunned growth and not the transplant

ur transplant missed some more water

Thanks! That's what I was afraid of as well. I'm not sure what you mean about the roots, but I did take them out of a tiny cup and put them in a larger one. I tried to be very careful, but I suppose it didn't work Thanks for the help!

Thanks! I'm always afraid of watering too much, so maybe I didn't water enough.....Thank you so much for the info though!

Hey! I know I'm so confused, because they were in TINY little pots and doing well- I was told to transplant them and I did- but then transplanted them again into a sightly larger one that had much better soil....I'm going to have to get some rockwool cubes, that's for sure! Thank you for the help though! I really appreciate it! <3

Hey! I tried to do the transplant very fast- the cup i transplanted them from was soooooo tiny that I was worried they didn't have any room to grow....perhaps it was just too early.....that and the crazy heat....anyway, live and learn, I suppose! Thank you so much!


Does anyone know where I can find a chart about the times things are supposed to take? Like, what week they're considered not seedlings anymore, etc....Thank you all again, I appreciate it! <3 <3 <3
