Hey i'm new here, infact i just started my first batch of herb. I germinated about 9 seeds last week 6 of which have now been planted and are about 1/2 an inch to 1 1/2 inches tall. My problem is i made the mistake of planting 3 plants in each pot, each pot is about 6 inches in diameter...( :cry: bad idea i know)...so my question is how should i go about transplanting them so as to reduce shock, and what should i be transplanting them into?

The Tay :peace: kid

Hi TAY...

you can kep them together if you are concerned about killing them while trying to seperate them.. You will need to give them at least a 3 gallon conatiner... 5 gallons would be better.. you will also need to try and keep them all the same height.. you can do this by training them(tying them down with twisty ties, string etc..).. Once one of theplants breaks ahead and gets taller.. it will start absorbing all the light and it will squeeze out the other plants..

these planst GROW FAST!!

cheers
