I'm not the soil guy. I just want to say you may experience shock, and it may or may not survive that stage : [ srry I can't help anymore.

I am yet to have a problem after a transplant. I wait till it's wattering time so the soil is dry. Take the plant and flip it upside down. Gently tap on the side and the entire thing should come out in one block. Stick in the pot, add dirt and voila.

If it was a healthy plant you will be alright, nothing to worry about. Just fill the bottom of the new pot with soil, then the sides and the top should already be level with the pot. Understand ?

It'll be fine, I always untangle my roots roughly by hand when I repot. I've grown every thing from orchids to onions in my life, nothing is tougher than cannabis.

This is a relief. I'm having rough patches in my very first grow of anything. I'm still enjoying myself though. I was planning on growing other things down the line. Orchids was on my list too : ]

Hmmmm.... only seems to add to the appeal. Currently I know nothing of them, only that they are beautiful.
