Plant in shock need help!

Just yesterday I took my outdoor plant and transplanted her inside into a pot. Her leaves began to droop and have yet to spread back out.
I've got it under a 37 watt cfl and i've watered it (being careful not to over water). I'm confident I didnt damage the roots and that I spread them out well. She's a small plant just under 2 feet and in full bloom.
How long will the shock last, will it pull through? I just want another week or two for maximum potency, I fear i'll have to start drying early.
How close to the light can it be?

well first thing you need to do is get some more cfls pronto or she will never come out of shock.... she will just wither and die.... thats a fact.... you need at least a couple hundred watts for your lady......go to wall mart and pick up a few 60 watters( the actual wattage, not the equiv). their around 18 bucks a peice. you get some more lighting and your lady should perk up in a day or 2....good luck man....

You can't do a transplant like that without doing some root damage, but just trim off some lower growth, so the roots can support the plant. Less roots = less plant.

It should bounce back within a day or 2, just don't water again, until it's really thirsty, or you'll have more problems. :peace:
 
Thanks for the help, she's under a 4 foot cfl shop light for the remainder of the day. Most of tomorrow will be spent the same way, but I will need to put her in her box with less lighting for a few hours. Any more advice is welcome.
