Might just need a minute to adjust to her new shoes. It's winter, if your temps aren't on the up and up from floor to ceiling (mainly floor) growth slows.

Keep the daily watering schedule and don't let your coco ever go dry. It will take some time before she stretches her roots through the pot then she'll blow up.

Thanks mate but i did the transplant for a few days.A few times in the past had no problem likes this.U can see I use a heat mad under the pot,the temp is around 25-27 celcius.I use 250W MH and like 3 feet from the top of canopy to the light....

Thanks u,maybe I need to pour out the medium to see wat happen to my roots.In my opinion,I put the coco in the pot so tighttttt and the roots can't go through.I always note when I do watering every single time but this time the pots don't dryyyy bro.Wtf with this case,so crazy,I grow over 5 years,over watering could not be happen.... again,thanks for ur time

So any sugestion for me bro ! Should I use epsom salt to spray on....
Idk man, that plant looks pretty healthy. Did you cut a bunch of growth off of it when you transplanted? The growth that's there looks good, like it was growing at a pretty good rate. I'm still thinking it must be stressed.

When transplanting I make sure to keep the original rootball wet for a week or so until it establishes some roots into the new media.
Hey my friend,I grow over 5 years so this is my exp,u should half way of being wet not wet at all.Because when ur roots being so wettt,it will be lacked of oxygen.For example,my method is hempy for mommies and pot of bud,3 litters of water will makes some water go out of the hole,i feed it 1.5 litter with light nutrients,when the roots catch the bottom,I will do full feeding or a flush then full feeding depend on some situations ! Cheers

I should have worded it as "keep from drying out". My point is only that until the roots are established somewhat in the new soil you need to keep the original rootball watered properly or it dries out faster than the surrounding soil because it can only wick so much moisture. This limitation can slow the plant growth and even cause wilting in some circumstances.
