Ready to transplant? Temp: 79. Hum: 45%. Soil is Ocean Forest. Ph in: 6.4/ph out: 6.1. Watered her and the others 2 days ago, 1 cup. I’m transplanting into 5 gal fabric pots, so I don’t want to do it too early. I also plan on doing the first topping soon. Advice?

It basically shocks the roots to start seeking out nutes in the soil. Not sure if the science but it seems to work for me

When you transplant cut of the last quarter of an inch of your roots. It will actually help them recover quicker. Top at the third node.

Plan to top at the 3rd node. This is the first I’m hearing about cutting roots. Would you mind explaining a little further so I can understand the rationale behind it?

Your ph is low, bring it back up to 6.8
