HELP Transplant stress

CannabisShred777 · Jul 26, 2012

I have a Triple X strain that I just transplanted yesterday. I watered it as soon as i put it in the spot its in now. Then i checked it today and this is now what it looks like. Its in happy frog soil.
Is this just because its stressed, or is there a way to revive it?
Any ideas? Before and after

Wow. If that's just stress, that's way worse than any transplant shock i've seen. Are you sure you didn't sever a giant portion of the roots? It looks to me like severe dehydration.

Transplanted from *what*? It looks as though the entire root ball has been violated, in a big, bad way. That, or transpiration issues. Did you transplant it from being indoors as well? If so, that's a big part of the problem, too, especially if that spot is as hot as it looks like it can get, being next to a sunlit stucco wall and all.

The picture on the left is where i transplanted from, it was just a backyard garden and it was healthy. It wasn't moved gracefully but today i checked on it and its starting to come back but it still has a way to go. Its also flowering too so if it does come back is it gonna effect its budding stage? What about the not so lively leaves should i just trim?

I would wait a week at least. I would give it palliative support in the form of some shading when it gets too hot, and maybe a little root boost in the form of microbes and seaweed/kelp. If RH in the area is low, then spray the plant and wall, all nearby areas and get the RH up a bit. Then wait and watch. In a week to ten days you'll be better able to assess what's going to have to go and what can stay.

I would get some good aloe vera, either extract without preservatives (sodium benzoate is what you want to avoid most) or powder, and use it as a foliar application.

Mostly, you need root growth. It must have had a lot of roots taken when you pulled it from one area to another.

Looks kind of like a plant that I fucked up transplanting earlier this week.

What really happened tho, was that I was the one fucked up while transplanting.

Woke up the next day and one plant was not only not potted, but also located about 3 feet from my t5 veg area, and completely spilled (root node not in coco). The good news was, I thought that I had left them all outside and untransplanted the night before. 1/14 aint horrible for blackout odds.

Make sure it isn't underwatered or over-watered but it's hard to tell from those pictures. When plants are underwatered the tops go limp first and it's easy to spot. Does the pot have drain holes?

It looks like you pulled it from the ground and put it in a pot. If that is correct I'd say you you may have damaged the roots severely. Especially after seeing your 2nd group of pics. Also, those outer leaves (in that second group pf pics) look like they are shriveled up and drying out. Make sure it's not underwatered.

What type of soil was she planted in the ground with? HF too? If not, it's possible the drastic change in soils shocked the living shit out of it. But, IMO that would be rare seeing how big the plant is.

That girl is in critical condition, man. MMJ is a pretty hardy plant. She may come back to life. I'd keep it out of sun and check your moisture level in the soil.

Ill post some pictures tomorrow but you know what dude, its starting to bounce back. This girl is a trooper. Yeah there are drain holes. I just took of some of the dead fan leaves and the bucket feels pretty heavy so i think i'm gonna let the soil dry out a bit, but its in happy frog.

Do exactly what Seamaiden said, she hit it right on the head. Kelp and soil microbes are going to save your plant. I did the same thing as you with some tomato and habanero plants this season, I only lost one tiny habanero plant.
