i just transplanted my 2 week old plant and to say the least.. it went terrible. a good portion of the roots didnt leave with the plant... what do i do now?:neutral:
 
it needs energy to heal/grow...some ppl who clone will use a low light....but ur plant wont live with none what-so-ever
 
well on top of that I found bugs in my soil. all signs point to soil mites but i'm not sure.
as for the plant it looks fine and it's been about 12 hours. the only drooping i see is at the tips of the largest leaves but i've been noticing that happens a little when i water it. does this sound like it will recover?
and regardless if they are good mites or bad mites, how do i get rid of them?
 
Your plant might not survive the loss of roots because it's so young.

As for the bugs; Your first job is to identify them. When you've done that you need to research a way to deal with them.

How was it done to tear roots from the plant? did you just yank it out of the old pot by the stem?. did it need transplanting at such a young age?
Next time wait till rootbound,(water it) and it will form a rootball for easy transplant.

yeah i know now that it could have stayed in the other pot for quite some time. my mistake lol. there is barely any signs of stress, in fact, growth seems to be speeding up.
 
it is still growing but the leaves are becoming light yellow-green. is this probably from the shock?
