Transplanted the Big Beauty into a 10gal fabric pot. Was planning on using Five 5gal for the 5 seeds, but since only 2 survived, Why not? i have all this dirt, might as well put it to good use. but i transplanted the smaller seedling into this small container with drainage holes. Fed her Quarter amount of Nutes. Top Dressed the 10gallon with Coco Chips and placed dry nutrients on top: Oregonism XL and Nitro Bat Guano for now.

You can see some extensive growth just 4 days later. Although With the smaller Seedling, i started seeing Large Roots about 2-3 inches long in the see-through container it was in, so i decided it was time to transplant her into a 5gallon. Guess what happened next: Just like a Dummy Newbie would, I wasn't careful when pulling her out and ripped those long roots off. What a fucking idiot! Well, you live and you learn. It looks like she's in SHOCK with her leaves all droopy, but her color looks nice. Hope she pulls through fast.

Next Feeding will be Wednesday night.

Questions: Since my 10gal has all that dirt, i fed her 1 complete gallon which gave me a light runoff at the bottom. So i decided that was a perfect feeding for her. Since then, the soil has not been completely dry or muddy wet. It's been cold and damp. the first 1 inch is a bit dry, but below it, its Fresh, Cool and Damp. I don't know whether that means the soil is dry or that its perfect. It is a fabric pot, so i was expecting super dry soil and feeding her 3-4 times a week with R.O water @ pH 6.5. But I've only fed her Once With a full 1 gallon with nutrients and half a gallon of 3 days later with R.O @ pH 6.5. Does this seem right?

Room and Temperature:
_DSC6070.jpg_DSC6164.jpg
Closet is 25sq ft. Temperature is constant between 74 and 78 degrees Fahrenheit. Humidity ranges from 10% to 30%. Cant really control this aspect of the grow room. Will that be a problem?

Thanks guys;

All criticism will be taken as constructive. No hard feelings here.

Oh, by the way. Those are Yellow Stickies surrounding the inside of the pot. Saw a white-grayish Centipede crawl out of there once. So just taking a precaution. I know that aren't much harm to my plant. But those things creep me the fuck out.

At this pooint the one in ghe 10 is so small the media will hold enough water for her lil roots for awhilr. looking much better bro. keep it green. seem to be on the right track on watering, i know its heavy but u want a real good idea whether she needs water pick her up, wet 10 gallon pot is gonna way a shit ton compared to a dry one. if u got a bad back its cool just my suggestion since im still pretty young and do this sometkmes as a double check to the finger prod.
