So sorry people, having a panic! My little baby has been going great in the 6ins pot under the light until......I just transplanted it today, into a 3 gallon pot with a layer of clay pebbles at the bottom, and compost mixed 30% perlite the rest. Watered it with it's first 'feed'. A concentrated multi purpose liquid feed 7-7-7. I checked it a minute ago, (4 hours after transplanting) and it's all curled up on the left. You'll see. Leaves below are drooping down too! AAAHHHH!!

Can someone have a look and let me know whats occuring?
I'd REALLY appreciate some guidance.

Thanks in advance.

I think I've started feeding it too early guys, what you reckon?
Or is just the shock of transplanting?

Patiently awaiting reply.............................

What time of the "day" did you transplant it? You need to do it at the end of the light day so that it has all night to recuperate from the stress. Did you feed it a 1/4 or 1/2 stregth solution or full strength?

[stifnek]

I transplanted it this morning around 11am. And fed the 'first time' feed with a third of strength solution.
Thanks SO much for your input..

[hoodrider]

I don't mean what time did you transplant.

How long do you have your lights on a day?
if it's 18/6 then you should have transplanted at the end of the 18 hrs. when it's going into the dark period.

[stifnek]

I;ve got the light on 24/0 at present. It was going fine, til I transplanted.

[stifnek]

Is this a schoolboy error? Is that why no-one is replying!?

[notorious P.O.T]

looks like its just the transplanting shock... dont worry just ride it out.. if it gets any worse then you might want to flush it it also could be drooping because you just watered it ... or a combo of freshly watered and transplant shock .. but imo i dont think its a big deal.. just wait and see.. best of luck..
ohh yeah and for future reference dont feed your plants with nutes right after a transplant it could over stress your plants..

[stifnek]

Great. Many thanks for the input. Got worried there for a mo!

[notorious P.O.T]

lol yeah i bet.. but i think its fine man... keep up the good work
