    Hey guys I'm at a bit of a loss and need some answers.I transplanted my girl last week from a 5 gal pot to a 10 gal pot, she looks to be doing ok but hasn't grown much the last week.My question is when I transplanted I put a little to much soil at the bottom so when I put the plant in its a bit too high like around the stem there is a bit of a mound like 1/2 an inch,Is it worth taking out and repotting and stressing her out a but more?Or does it really matter it's a little high?

    It does not matter if it is a bit high, though by having a mound you may spill when you water. I wouldn't bother trasnplanting.


    As to your plant not growing, they do that when they are transplanted. Nothing to worry about. Takes 1-2 weeks to start growing again.


    Cheers!

    AB is correct. :thumbs-up: It take about a week to 10 days before the plants start taking off again. This is normal due to root shock from being transplanted.


    By next week she should be growing again. :bong-2:

    Awesome, now just gotta get some issues sorted N diff, which I have started wattering with lower ph, also had to add sulphur to soil to lower ph to from 7 to 6.5.


    Damn growing outdoors is alot tougher than I imagined, pests being one if the biggest problems along with 20 deg Celsius tempreture fluctuations. High ph levels. Wishing I could go to indoor.
