Hi Steemians! So the other day fellow Steemian mentioned there should be more how to, and educational posts on the subject of growing cannabis here on Steem and I completely agree. I care deeply about the state of the cannabis community here on Steem, there is no reason why Steem can't be a great place for cannabis content, which it is, but we can do better. Smoke is cool, but to just have a site just for posting cannabis, get's a little boring, and I like putting my cannabis post right along side the people who would otherwise never get to see a cannabis post. Just maybe we can show a person that may be against cannabis, that cannabis isn't so bad after all. So for this reason is why all my canna people should not stop posting their cannabis content here. Yes you can still post on Smoke, but don't limit yourself to one demographic of people. Spread the word, and free the weed!
Today I will show you how to transplant. It's actually very easy, but I fell some people look to much into it and fuck it up. The strain i will be transplanting from a one gallon pot, to a 3 gallon pot, is Peanut Butter Breath. It is a cross of Mendo Breath, and Do Si DOs.
Step 1
Take a look and see how deep you want to bury the root ball. I like to bury it closes to the bottom nodes.
Step 2
Gently pull out root ball. Don't be afraid, those roots are stronger then you think.
Step 3
Have a fork on hand.
Step 4
Using the fork, bust up and pull those bound up bottom roots out.
Step 5
Set root ball into pot.
Step 6
Now just fill up pot with your growing medium. I use a blend of Fox Farm Ocean Forest, and Happy Frog.
Step 7
After pot is filled, make sure you put your label back it. You do not want to forget what strain the plant is. This is a common rookie mistake and it always boggles my mind when growers get it mixed up.
So that's how you transplant. Very simple, but can be intimidating for the first time grower. Just remember once a cannabis plant is in the 'teen' stage, it is very hard to kill it. Don't be afraid, and if you make a mistake, learn from it! That's is the name of the game after all. Learn all you can, and making mistakes, sometimes can be the best teacher in life, same applies to growing.
