The local hydro shop, or a ton of places online. How did you lose that much root mass? Usually when I transplant, I run a butter knife or a similar device to loosen the roots from the walls of the bucket, or pot. Try to run the knife in between the dirt and the side of the pot as far down as it will reach, stay against the side of the pot as much as possible so you don't damage the roots much. Do that around the whole perimeter of the pot. Then what I do, is turn the whole pot on its side and get ahold of the stalk, then proceed to dump it upside down gently sliding it into my hand, removing the entire clod from the pot in one piece, with occasional loose dirt falling off. Hope that helps. Peace

easy,u removed way to much roots,u didnt nurse it the right way.u shouldve moved the light like 3ft away and misted the leaves and give it a longer dark period till it perked back up
