late night rant from me.
i stuck 12 of my best mothers into boxes, into the very back corner of a uhaul truck, and they sat there for 5+ days with no light and no air circulation, with temps down to 25 degrees on my trip across the west from portland to denver through idaho, utah, and wyoming.
i finally got them out of their box while it was snowing after unpacking the entire truck and to my amazement, they not only survived but they looked great. not a single wilted leaf or yellowing top. it was as if they spent a few minutes in there.
those 12 moms then sat for four days with only two common household lamps giving them 26 combined watts of CFL light while i unpacked all our stuff and got around to building the veg room.
they took off after getting their full light and nutes again. there was so much new growth that i was able to clone them and throw them into flower well ahead of when i expected to, as i thought they'd need much longer to recover from their traumatic move.
and now those little cunts have decided to rebel. maybe it is transplant shock, maybe it is the 58 degree temps in my garage thanks to this sudden snow and cold spell. but they are drooping harder than i've ever seen them do. i've never seen transplant or cold shock like this before in similar or worse conditions.
maybe it's the thin air and altitude they don't like. but i'm gonna be real worried if they don't start looking much better, and soon.
goddamn selectively resilient plants. driving me crazy.
rant over.
