My friend just recently transplanted a well rooted 10 day old plant that was in a 12oz seed starter soil cup to a 1.5 gallon hempy. (70/30 coco/perlite on top with a perlite reservoir) He had done this before and had no shock last time. This time, the lowest leaves and the first set of true leaves look kind of droopy. There is new growth but it is slower than it was in seed starter soil. The coco was moist when transplanted into (rinsed until ppm of 20 and precharged with a very weak solution 150ppm at 5. and from what he said there was no root damage. He has given the plant a small watering every day around the center of the plants (where the roots were planted into) of 80ppm solution (a little superthrive, some dynagro kln, foliage pro, and protekt). His PH is @ 5.8 Water is 0-10ppm out of zero pitcher.
It has been 3 days since transplant. Day one there was a little droop, day 2 a little more, day 3 a little more. I guess he also changed his cfl's (1x23 6500k, 1x42 6500k) to a led (100x3 mars hydro at 18 inches above canopy). Temps and Humidity are ideal, good air flow.
Could this possibly be transplant shock? I told him to stop watering every day, could this be the solution. I can't get him to let me take any pics, so sorry about that. Please help!
