Digging Up Sprout Question...

When I started planting I put the seeds about 2 inches from the wall of the pot I'm using... One has sprouted and it's doing nice but where it is it's kinda hard getting the lights right on top... can I somehow dig up the sprout and move it to the middle of the pot?

Sure ... use a teaspoon. Did deep enough to not disturb the root. Put into the center of the pot after digging a hole there.

Yea, I did the same thing on my first attempt at growing. I thought I dug down deep enough, but it wasn't enough and tore up some of the roots. Plant started to die like 2 days later. :cry:

You should be able to tell if it's going to make it in the next couple of days or so. You should probably be alright since you felt it went smoothly.

Mine fell out of the pot at the sprotting stage. Roots exposed and everything. I replanted it and it went into shock. The tips of the leaves turned yellow and everything but i didnt die though it recovered.

I once did an attempt at growing in soil. It was about 3 weeks in and they were doing piss pourly. So I dug up the plants and washed off the roots very carefully under luke warm water. I then placed the four plants in my hydro system, and walla,, 3 days later they were off and running.
