Transplanted a few plants from 1gallon to 3 gallon. Ripped some root tips off. Used kelp foiliar spray and after the plants looked droopy leaves felt crispy. Seem to Be doing better after one feeding. Also tied down taller plants. I plan to switch to flowering sometime this week any input?
Am I right in thinking I will transplant and after a week if the plans are doing well, I will FIM the plants tips. Then start tieing down taller colas. Or should I FIM then transplant?
Hello ! Transplant could cause a stress and FIM as well ( possible but not necessary) so I would first transplant then after few days ( even a week ) then FIM. But your plant could handle both at the same time too. Hope it will help you 😁👍
Hey the seedlings are stretching! You want to make sure you move the light a tad closer. Invest in a cheap PPFD reader and you want to keep it around 700-1000 for seedlings depending on the plant. 1000-1200 for flower and veg!
@DET__PDX,
Yeah I was worried about burning the leaves but they seem to doing great. Sine the plants grew about 6 inches I moved the lights to exzactly 18 inches from plants this week.
Lookin' good! IMO, I would just do plain water to finish 'em up, no need for molasses now and no reason to defoliate now and possibly stress them as they are tryin' to finish. I remember when I was about 17 yrs old in the late 70s and my parents asked me what I wanted from Hawaii and I asked them to get me a Maui Waui (Wowie) t-shirt... lol, my Mom said they looked everywhere until someone told 'em what they were asking for... she coulda killed me... lol
Hi @Bluntsallday! I would do it the same day, if you're confident about the rempotting. Indeed, a properly done transplantation has no impact at all on the growth, if you do it correctly your plant won't even notice. FIMing however is a serious surgery operation and will necessarily generate stress, plant will need a few days to understand what's happening, re-drive its apical dominance, and recover / create new growth. Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊
