ok, 9 days after the transplant I think it is safe to say that some sort of recovery is indeed possible.
In the past few days they have gotten noticably active.
remember, they had almost no roots 9 days ago, after 5 weeks.
a copy from my grow log-
Abi and Donna definately are waking up.
whats more!? I looked underneath and both of these girls roots have gotten very busy since the transplant, they are showing healthy root at the drain holes!!!
I guess recovery from this terrible stunting is indeed possible.
I will leave them in the current pots until they develop more above ground.
I think the visible growth should start to catch up with the root development based upon their activity in the past few days. They are far more active than ever before.
not sure just how fast they will grow now, but, we'll see.
the recovering bonsai girls.

I'm suspecting there were clones? Sometimes clones dont budge at all for a while once repotted, then take off after a week or so.
Rock, I'm suspecting overwet soil if you just had a little bit of root development near the soil surface.
If the soil doesn't drain well, there's no drain holes in the pots, or you just have kept them constantly saturated, the roots would not have had sufficient oxygen to develop.
Soil or grow media should be allowed to lose about 3/4 of its water weight before watering again. Soil should be touch dry down a couple inches before giving more water. Think 'damp' never 'wet.' Cannabis hates 'wet feet.'
I like this one. I've successfully moved plants which were well-rooted in clay pellets this way, with no transplant shock if few roots are damaged.Quote:
1-superthrive her like crazy as a prep to help prevent shocking her to death.
then soak the pot till i have soup,
fish out the root sytem and carefully transplant into new fluffy soil.
Go easy on the Sthrive, it won't stop transplant shock- but avoiding breaking roots will.
actually, no, these were bagseed.Quote:

I think this was heat damage.
they are improving quickly and likely need a transplant.
i will probably push them to flower prematurly as I am letting Betty set the pace. When she is ready, I'll flip all 3.
