My plant is drying out.

I just moved one of my outdoor plants into a pot and out of the ground do to various reasons. Even tho the plant just moved like 50 feet away, 3 hours later some of the leaves started to curl at the tips and looked like it was drying up. If anyone can spar some advice, what should i do to save it.

How much of the rootball did you get? More than likely you just didn't get enough of the root sytem. Either way, you have done one of the most traumatic things that you can do to a plant. Hopefully it will survive, but who knows...

Sounds like shock. You'll know in a day or so. If it survives and we hope it does, you may have backslid a couple weeks in development. Good luck. Hopefully someone like FDD can provide advice...he's probably the most knowledgeable grower on this site

yeah, this IS one of the most traumatic things you can do. if it's not too small, soak soil with plain water, then water well with 1/2 strength high nit. fert. you did'nt just rip it out of the ground did ya?

Thankyou! My plants are doing better than ever now:]]]]]

Awsome, good job, congrats!!!

anytime you transplant, especially outdoor, your plant will droop and look like it's dying for one or two days. we thought we lost an outdoor we had to move last year but it sprang back up like an umbrella.

im kinda alittle bit late to be posting on this thread, but when your plants leaves start to curl and look like they are drying up alittle bit, just water them.

haha nice post"just water them" lmao

hahaha
