As most of you know I am new to cloaning and am having decent success with my first attempt. I have 8 cloans from my first crop that have rooted very nicely and I tranfered to 2 gallon buckets last Saturday,
My question is: Is it normal for them to just kind of sit there with no real new growth? My feeling is this is normal, but I am not sure due to when I start from seed and I do a transplant those plants seem to explode with new growth in 2 or 3 days.
I would not be too worried as they are probably growing but you just cannot see it. In other words the roots are growing down into the new container. It would help if you were to describe the growing medium, whether or not you fed them (nutrients at what strength), etc.
I just transplanted a Super Skunk clone into soil and it took over a week for me to see the growth shoots begin to get bigger and stretch out a bit. Believe me I checked 3x every day but about 2-3 days ago the growth was noticable.

They are in MG moisture control soil that is mildly pre-nuted but seems to work well with all my other crops I have going. I have not applied any nutes to them yet because I feel they are to young. They are a very nice forest green color. I do not see any health problems, they have been in soil now for 2 1/2 weeks, They were originally in 3" square pots untill roots were coming out the bottom then I transplanted to 2 gallon buckets last Saturday.
I am just wondering when do the new leaves start to form? from what I can tell they are still on their original leaves they are bigger though. Plus you may be right I do look at them quite often so noticing growth is more difficult.
Each plant is unique and in a diff. environment, but mine have taken up to 2 weeks to show noticable new leaf growth. Hope that help ya...

Anytime you stress them it is very common for them to appear to stop growing for anywhere from a couple days to a couple weeks. When you transplanted, you stressed them. I expect mine to just kinda sit there for about 3 days after taking them out of the cloner, then boom, off they go. As long as they look healthy I would not worry about it. They will grow soon if you do things correctly.
