I know how to transplant plants, have done landscaping for many years. Maryjane is just a different ballgame, well maybe not but just dont want to lose this game:)
I guess i should of posted the question before i did it. Think it caused it much stress?
Any ideas if it will effect the growth and yield?
thanks in advance.

This is one of the threads that I've read that says as long as you catch your plants early enough in 12/12 they should be fine...If you wait too long obviously they're not going to like much...
I'm sure the pros have specifics on this but this is just what I've read, hope this helps and I hope you were careful

i bet not worth a damn, but its ok. I guess the attempt is to help me cope with things and teach me to be patient. I have spent a total of $20.00 on the whole project. The flowing station was a three tier setup i disassembled to make it better for her, and that was something i found in the house, and have only purchased the soil and plastic pots..
If it would of been a seed from a good genetic line, i would like to think i would go balls deep into growing. I have always felt that all weed is great but some just gets handled poorly.
ill keep the board updated on her life, and will be here to asking questions all along the way..

I usually veg seedlings in 16oz plastic cups,under 4 foot floros, and transplant into 6 inch pots when rootbound; then, I switch to 400 watt HID. Then, when about 30 days of veg are over, switch to 12/12. When the plants show their sex, I transplant to 10 inch/3gallon pots and wait for the harvest...:thumbsup:...simple isn't it.
ps...don't use 4 inch terra cotta pots for seedlings...their a bitch to transplant from.
Hope this helps...somebody.

I like to transplant soil-flowered plants at the end of the 'stretch' period so I know what I'm looking at for space needs.
They love it!
But if you need to transplant earlier, don't wait, just estimate.
