When To Transplant Into Super Soil?
At what point are plants ready to be transplanted into Roots Organic soil?
And at what point are plants ready to be introduced to Super Soil? (50% super soil in bottom of pot, 50% Roots Organics in top of pot).
As a little test, I had some 3 week old plants that were doing well and bursting out of the bottom of ther 3-inch rockwool cubes. So I planted 2 of them them in 1-gallon pots with 60% Roots Organic on top, and 40% Super Soil on the bottom. Was this too early to do this?
Thanks
Anybody have advice on correct times to transplant?
Anytime to transplant is the correct time dood.
I don't use super soil, but what I do when transplanting is similar; I have a base mix amended to whatever extent I see fit, and the soil on the bottom of the container gets extra amendments (additional guano, usually Peruvian Seabird, more kelp, whatever else I want to add) so that the roots grow slowly down into this more nutrient-rich area. Then I just use water with Catalyst and\or blackstrap. I've never had any problems doing this with appropriate sized plants, and at 3 weeks they should be a good enough size.
If you cooked the soil as they recommend you should be just fine.

I apologize for my incessant rambling, but if you are patient there is inner hidden wisdom in most of my posts...Like playing literary "Where's Waldo."--------------- See, it's fun!
Nahh...your move sounds great...and just right as well kudos!

Subcool first transplants into 1 gallons of roots then transplants into a 7 gallon with supersoil bottom 50%. Check out his youtube channel, it all there in video format.
answer to your question, imo..
start seeds in 1 gallon containers of good rich (plain) bagged organic soil and veg for a month, then transplant into 7-10 gallon thats half super soil, a mixed 2-3" of the super soil and bagged soil, then continue to use just the bagged soil to fill in around your smaller 1 gallon rootball. lets the plant gradually find the super soil.
works great everytime.
