Grobo outdoor transplants- auto kush

@chris_barfield you might know.
Doing 2 grobo to dirt transplants.
Unit 2 plant has dampening off. The pod is half an inch above the flush surface and still remains quite wet. Fans and kleenex have not helped. Ive been using raw stuffers for the pre rolls with a cut up the middle to help absorb mositure and maintain plant stability.
Wouls putting it in dirt now be better or worse than waiting 8 days till flowering starts and doing it then. I keep thinking the dirt will dry out the pod. Above the section of sampening the plants stalk has doubled in width and is turning barky as i have seen it do before.
Wouls you plant now or try to wait. Plant looks healthy in all other aspects

Damn well if your going to do anything like do it during veg for sure … do not flip and do it as the plant is gunna go into extreme shock for most likely two weeks … when you do it raise humdity up to 80 percent as this wil help ease the transition… when you transplant cover the roots in mychorizae (I use great white or xtreme gardening) to help with shock… also something like liquid karma helps to reduce shock and so will recharge… but do not flip and then transplant any abuse your going to want to do it in veg and wait till it recovers … when I transplant from dirt to the grobo my plant was shocked for two full weeks before any signs of recovery

Ok. Im being up front. Appreciate the confirmation and for sure not spending more. Ill use this and its going into fox farm dirt. Sorta got to use what i have thing. Ive been way more abuseful to them snd they seem to be ok with it lol.


Sort of an experiment
Im not sure how to get a high humidity if there outside where it’s zero. Cant leave in the grobo or flower soon and too big of roots to oull out

i have built a greenhouse for them. If inspray it constantly with water will that jack it up. Its duct tape sealed and has aair flow from under the deck boards to bring in breezes

This whole thing is an experiment. Dipped the roots in the root growth fungus stuff pictured above. Next 3 to 4 days will be rainy in Calgary after that warm in the 20s. Lets see how well they do. Have a water spray for the greenhouse to help elevate humidity.

Did you put this cover together, or did you buy it as is?

Oh gotcha I read it wrong but yea honestly dude they will bounce back for sure just keep them shaded as the sun will be too much at first but you will be fine

Cover was on walmart for 25 dollars. Just built the frame myself. Should keep smell down too. I have 5 lavender plants to move around it too.

Plants are so fascinating
One took to dirt and generally looks normal. Thats the one with dampening off and i didnt water it. The other one is wilting on the bottom branches meaning its not able to sustain required water intake. Hopefully bounces back

Nice, is it true that lavender is difficult to grow?

not terribly worried one way or another. I will have 2 going lol.
I like to fool around with my plants. Somehow ive managed to keep over 30 plants plus alive all winter inc tropical fruits and such
Just sorta keep getting a wee bit better little by little. Guess why im into cannabis now.
Harder, more financial cost. However we cook a lot with it and the smoke is as good as triple a canabis due to crystal strength and density.
Im going to make mistakes. Thats ok its how i learn and i do get enjoyment from that.

I agree - Erykah Badu said it best:

If your knowledge were your worth then it would be well-earned

The process is resource intensive (time, energy, attention, money), but it’s addictive and fun as hell. And the returns are priceless :ok_hand:t3:

The returns always end up in smoke…
