Day 2 of transplant shock

[Ayokiwi717]

So 2 of my four look healthy. The third one started to look kind of unhappy today which is weird because yesterday he didn't look unhappy. The forth one looks like he'll, but that was expected since it was a bitch getting him out of the pot what do you guys think. I still hope the third will pull through nicely, he only started to droop like that today, and I can see his small starting circular leaves are turning yellow. The major droop one looks pretty much the same as yesterday. I definitely learned how to transplant better next time around.

Did u even water them

They look bone dry

I agree the soil looks dry and the plant is showing it needs watered. When you transplanted did you water aswell?

I gave them 200ml of water after transplant. I was feeding them with a shot glass ever one to days prior and they enjoyed that. I then was going to give them 200ml of water every 3-4 days in the big pot. The 3rd guys you see in the pic is a little over 2 weeks old, and the 4th crappies looking guy just turned 2 weeks probably a day or 2 ago. Im pretty positive I didn't over water, and I cant imagine I underwatered. I just gave them that on Wednesday at around 4 ocklock...

One to two days i meant to say. Thats the finger test there is some soil dust sticking to my finger. I would say it feels somewhat moist why would they go from a shot glass to more than 200ml like that...

You need to water that entire pot after transplant

Get those roots searching for more space,not sleeping hiding from the dark, dry soil


Come on man!!!

Due to bigger pot the rest of the soil will need watered

You used less water before because pot was smaller
As mentioned water it thoroughly

Ok, I will water again, im just a chronic overwater so I preferably don't want to revert back. Do you guys think the super droopy one needs it to.

I will do another 200ml then

 

[BobThe420Builder]

Water them..

200ml is less than a cup

Get that pot wet.....WET

I'd say 3-4 cups minimum

Lift the pot now, do u know it's weight
Water it till runoff, lift it again

Then you know the weight when dry and time to water next time

Water until run off try to remember the weight of the pot when it is wet. Then water again once pot is light. After a couple waterings you will get the hang of it

Do you think only 2 bottles will be good since I gave them the third not to long ago

 

[BobThe420Builder]

I use almost a gallon in my 2.5g pots

I'd use 6 cups, soak those bitches
