easier, less stressful transplant

So the other day I came up with a really good transplant method. This really only works for the people that start in solo cups or other containers they dont mind throwing away.

If this sucks I apologize. Im extremely medicated and its the middle of the night

So you have your plant you need to transplant and maybe it didn't grow enough roots. If this is the case, if you pull it out of the cup, the soil will just break apart and you will be stuck with a tiny root ball that you need to be extremely careful with.

But, my method fixes this problem. What you do is you take your cup and place it in the pot of dirt you will be moving to. Dig a hole big enough for the cup the plant is in. Now take your cup out and cut off the bottom. You can really cut it off wherever, but I cut mine a half inch from the bottom. Now firmly grasp the cup and cut down one side of the cup. Now place the cup in the hole. Spread out the sides of the cup and lift up. It should come off really easily. And there you go, fill in the gaps with dirt.

Wow wall of text. I started with good format haha

heres my arguement, u dont think digging ur scissors in there, moving them around, and cutting the plasic, will disturb the roots? hell ur probably cutting roots while u do that too. transplant, IMO doesnt cause a significant amount of stress, its advised to loosen up the roots at the bottom of the root mass to help encourage root growth after trasnplant, which would cause stress, and if thats the case, may herm rite? then y do so many reputable growers advise this,because they know better. but ppl get this impression that if a plant gets the slightest amount of stress, its gonna hermie. easiest way to transplant imo is to put the base of the stem in between ur fingers, flip the plant over, and gently squeeze, and tap the container till the root mass comes out, and then if the roots are gnarled and tangled at the bottom of the mass, i loosen them up, only if needed tho. these plants are not as delicate and sensitive as u think. i learned first hand last year that a plant can take a real beating and and not herm, i got broken branches from animals all throughout budding nearly weekly, not to mention a few weeks before budding.a branch would break id tie and tape it, and as soon as everything started healing and lookin better, bam another branch, probably happend atleast 5-6 times during bud. thats alot of continuous stress, and the plant didnt herm, allthough i will say i realized the finished product wasnt very good, scraggly, and fluffly with low trich production, they didnt start looking like buds till 5 weeks, while my other plants were all great. i attribute this to being bc of the plant focusing a good portion of its energy, to healing the breaks and maintaining its health, while also trying to bud, so rather than all the plant energy being spent on the budding process, it was divided up
