Transplant gone rong

Today when i was transplanting my plant i kind of messed the root system up. However the majority of the root system stayed intact(about 70% of it).
Have plants ever died from this?

It'll probably slow growth down for just a little bit, while the roots get acclimated back into their new home, especially if 30% of the roots were broken off of the rootball (not sure if that's what you meant)... but it shouldn't kill it. Some of the leaves may also start to contort a little, which is normal. You might consider adding a drop of Superthrive per gallon of water for the next couple of waterings while you wait it out.

Take care. :jointsmile:

Usually, when you trim the rootball you trim off some of the foilage on the plant. There is thread on here about it. You should trim about 1/3 of the green foilage when trimming the roobtall. But you weren't trying to trim it. It just broke, so it prob didn't need to be transplanted yet then.

This what I do with my mother plants. Since I don't want to transplant them into ginormous pots, I trim the rootball, put fresh spoil in to replace what was there. Then trim her up. I only do this right after I butcher her for clones tho.

This may have helped you, it probably didn't though.

i do the same as the monkey

yea i added some superthrive to it and it seems to be bouncing back.
and good idea monkey, next time i think ill go with trimming the rootball.

Well I just do this with my moms, so I don't advise it as an alternative to transplanting.

Oh i see.
