How were the plants started? Rockwool cubes? Do have pix of what you are trying to move?

no they were started in dirt, i took it about a week in, carefully washed the dirt off and than hung it in the pot and started filling it with aeroponics/hydroponic stones

I have never tried soil to Hydro but, everything that I have read says you can't do it. I don't really know why but, I wouldn't try it. You can start the seed in Aero and move them soil, I have done that and it works fine.

Yes it is doable try using a neoprene collar to hold the plant up in your mix. Good Luck
