Transplanting question

Hi all. I have a quick question. I am ready to transplant. I watered the babies on Sunday and they are still pretty moist. My new pots are filled and the soil is cooking. I need to get them transplanted as they are beginning to show signs of being in a container which is too small. Is it ok to transplant from a moist container into another moist container if they have not had a drying cycle in between? Will this cause signs of overwatering? Thanks everyone.

Being a little root bound as you said I think it should be just fine as long as you don't drown it when you Xplant. Put some E.W.C. in the Xplanting containers ready hole with some mycos if you have it. That should absorb some moisture and give them a jump start. After letting it do it's dry cycle after Xplanting it should be back to normal brother. Good luck, Good grow, Be safe, :peace: out.

i would do dry (soil theyre in) to semi moist (pot they are going into)with water that has Superthrive in it... i would then water in the new plant with additional water from the top that also contains superthrive... you are transplanting and some containers are too small... you will be exposing roots thus stressing the plants.... its unavoidable once they go root bound. no doubt a cpl plants will show heavy yellowing overall displeasure.... lighten up on watering and make sure during this time if you are watering its not too much or it will really mess them up. yellowing in my experience appears within hours up to 5 days after the fact and usually last about 4 or 5 days ... if you go a week and youre still not darkening /perking back up you may have an issue but dont get bummed theyll almost always recover.. I would wait on nutes until second watering if plants were getting them before although that can depend on size/nutrient uptake/and genetics.

I usually transplant when the container is fairly dry, that way the plant slips out easily. Then water it immediately after your finished with the transplant.

Yeah i agree with FeelinSpacey. It's a simple process, just pop it out of the pot when it's dry and water it once it's been put in a bigger pot.
