when u transplant its best to let the soil dry... this will lower the chances of sending them into shock... i personaly hate Miracle grow... but it works better then mud... just keep tending them, how many times a day do u water the plants...

Judging by the first picture you transplanted into a dry media.

Its better to transplant from dry soil to Dry soil... then water after it is Transplanted right away so ur baby can drink and it will never know it was moved.

I've never heard of such a logic being used in the commercial propagation industry. The reason for transplant shock is that the root hairs are pretty much destroyed when you distrub the soil. Addition planting into a bone dry media, espicially one like miracle grow soil with fertilizers in it already tends to suck water ot of the roots and do even more damage.

Worblux you could not possibly do enough damage to the root hairs from transplanting if you do it right.

Light exposure (Roots hate the light)
Trauma (Banging and smashing the transplant pot around when trying to get the plant out.)
Transplanting into a non-aerated pack (Usually only a factor outdoors)
Soil and watertable temperature (Heres one most people dont think about. If you put a warm plant into new soil that is cold (or new soil that has cool water in it) this can cause shock.

I dont think you need to worry water them and keep good care of them they will bounce back.

the reason they go into shock when u move them is because there is water in the soil, and you take the plant out taking its water away, if you let the dirt dry, the plant isent absorbing water, so u transplant quick and u dont just rip it out,, u transplant it with the soil SO IT GOES INTO a bigger pot without damaging the roots, and then u water... less trama = less chance of shock

Plants are tough critter aren't they. If you are transplanting from one individual container to another bigger one "popping up" it's hard to mess up if you water them in well after.

thanks guys

i didnt water them for 3 and a half days before the transplant

but it seems to be doing much better now...just watered it and bounced right back

thanks

When you transplant, the soil should be mostly dry. Once in the new soil, water heavily and they should be all set.
