oh no, sorry. i meant that when i transplant my photos there is no slowdown for them. the autos i've tried before, minus the alien, i drowned them, let the dry out, cooked them, etc. now i'm good lol in the beginning it was all humidity issues. there wasnt any. ha

Been doing some reading on them and a lot of what I've read have been about yield decreases from shock. As long as your careful and have clean hands and don't have the roots under too much light when you're transplanting they shouldn't "shock" but what you see when they slow down for a couple days is the rootball expanding after the transplant, vertical growth slows while the rhizosphere expands. I think shock is a bit of an overused term in growing,

steff...if you go to their final pot, my problem in the past was the coco drying out (indoor grow) i took a 1 liter coke bottle, cut it in half, spray water inside it and put it over where you planted the seed. by doing that it created a "humidity dome" and it had no problem sprouting.

i 100% believe that. i could see how slow growth up top, some would say stunted. the roots seeking it out makes more sense. nice find Grow!

Wow, a photo from the Mephisto guys? That sounds very interesting. I am well versed in their auto's and I have never grown one that I don't like. Personal favorite is Sour Hound but I am very interested in trying a photo from Mephisto. That company is one of the reasons I like to grow autos. They do things the right way and Mitch is a great guy with great costumer service. Can't Wait @Jack Vault
Yeah, Mitch is a great guy :)
He'll be updating me soon enough, and I should be announcing the next comparative in January.
