I just transplanted yesterday evening and I was wondering - how long does it take for transplant shock to set in?

The plant looks completely normal, not droopy or sagging and it's been about 18 hrs. The transplant went very smoothly with little to no root disturbance. I also fed Superthrive right after.

ALSO 2 other important questions:

When can the plant start getting direct sunlight again?
When should I start feeding nutes again?

If you do it right, there will be no shock.

So you think if I haven't seen any signs of shock then I can continue with the regular lighting schedule, feeding, etc. ?

It shud be fine.. plants only go into shock when a jackass transplants them.. or when u change the mediums. You should give extra sunlight right after a transplant and plenty of water.. I wudnt recommend any chem. nutes tho.

How long would you wait until you start giving nutes again?

look good man don't worry about shock if u do everything right that plant will take off, just top as much as possible before august comes around, and give nutes right away, maybe a little less than before

Hey experts, can a brotha get some help?

I never had transplant shock but I always wait for my plant to get rootbound before I transfer. Do you guys have any advice so I dont have to wait as long?

your plant will be fine. if its shocked it will just droop for a few hours. maybe a day and be ok soon after. no worries
