Hi all, i have a big problem, to be honest it is the second time that i have this problem, i had the same 1 month ago and i lost a seedling.


I have some seedlings in pots, and 4 days ago i decided to move the biggest one in ground. I moved it in a place where it get lot of direct sunlight, and we had a lot of rain in last days


This is it when i moved it in the ground:

And this is how i saw it this morning, after 4 days:

I thought to an under-watering (also if i don't get how it is possible seen all the rain we are getting in this days) so i just gave water.


Please help me

What's the soil pH? Is it soil that was already in the ground, or did you put fresh soil in to plant it? What type did you use if that's the case? Do you have a moisture meter for it to gauge when it needs a drink since it's not in a pot and can't easily be picked up and determined that way?

Hi, thanks for interest.

I don't know the ph of the soil, but i mixed the soil that was already in the ground and the soil of my pot (peat, perlite, sand) (it was doing very well in the pot). And no, i haven't a moisture meter

Has the ground been saturated? If so, it may be getting a bit over-watered by what's pouring down from the sky - you did hint at the amounts of rain. Droop is usually due to over or underwater.. are there any other symptoms you've noticed that aren't clear/visible in the pics?

No, ground is not saturated, we had big rain but ground is far from saturated.
Just this big weakened of all the plant, and as you can see one leave has not borne and it felt.

I can say in the place where plant is there are not big animals, just little insects.

It may be in partial shock due to transplant for a day or three.. which depending on weather conditions outside is normal.. and as for insects, those are the primary issue with cannabis plants. Aphids and spider mites can / will destroy cannabis crops very swiftly if they go un-noticed, or you don't fix the problem as it's noticed.

Moisture meter for an outdoor plant? You have to be joking right?

is it possible that transplant shock did all this damage? Plant really look no life now. :-(

Actually no, I wasn't - for a few reasons.. he/she is brand new to growing, and after mentioning killing the first attempt I was trying to ensure a bit of sanity in the diagnosis of the pics we'd see by ruling out the obvious things. Not that it'd be a requirement by any means, just 1 less thing we'd have to guess at given the varying conditions of an outdoor crop for a new grower is all.

False security has no substance...those so called meters are about as accurate as someone with turrets using a slingshot.

Was meant to be used as a general gauge, and I won't argue as to the accuracy - was just figuring if one was laying around that he / she may have checked it and had some idea as to if it was close to flooded or was just the transplant shock I'd mentioned.

i see. though it was so strong where in the pot, the leaves were so green and vigorous...i am reallly thinking to leave them outside in pots instead of planting i the ground.

Next time try keeping them in a 3-5 gallon pot with plenty of 1/4inch drain holes in the bottom and place them outside. Just bury the bottom inch or two of the pot in the ground. Best of both worlds. The roots will find their way through the drain holes and into the native soil as needed.....

So concluding...you say that i can only wait, no problem for the fallen leaves, and the plant will get new strength?

The transplant has nothing to do with the piece of the plant that has been physically removed. You may want to consider some sort of pest control.
Its only been 4 days. Just walk away for a week and then come back to check on it.
