Looks like the natural process happening there. Check the trichomes, you don’t want to harvest when they’re glassy but when milky and about 20% Amber. It’s a waiting game

Hopefully I can get some good advice here been down in Florida for the last month to hand my neighbor started this plan out for me. I am back home now and ready to get to work on Evangeline. I want to transplant her into this 7 gallon pot and was thinking of taking it out of the smaller pot and putting it all the way down to the bottom of the bigger pot and filling it up with dirt of course taking off all the branches that will be below the dirt. What do you think will it root from the stalk or would it kill the plant?
@Mucluc Not sure that would be the best way to transplant. I’ve transplants many different plants and all the roots will do the same thing. Spread out and move down in search of water. I haven’t heard of them traveling upwards (though not to say they couldn’t). I would be mostly worried about the roots not developing as they should and getting all bunched up because they wouldn’t be able to travel as they are used to.
Certainly not to say it wouldn’t work, but that would be my worry. Maybe some other growers have other opinions though.

Yeah I understand what you’re saying. So maybe end up putting like 6 in of dirt in the bottom of the seven gallon pot then putting that in and taking about half the branches off. I just wondered if new roots would come out of the stalk, like a tomato plant. Whenever I transplant tomato plants I plant them deeper than the bottom branch.

I’ve heard of people bending a branch down into the ground and it will essentially sprout a new plant, so the same principles could be applied. But I would definitely put some at the bottom just so it doesn’t get bottled up or anything.

Tomatoes and Weed grow pretty much identically so you might be onto something my friend!!!

Was hoping @AfgVet would give some input. What is your opinion?

When I tranplant a seedling I bury right up to the first leave. The stem below will become a root

So, do or die, I put 6" of I dicanja dirt in the bottom of the 7 gal pot then transplanted and filled with same dirt 2" from the top of planter. I only cut off bottom 2 nodes and did 2 clones. The rest of the branches under soil I tied down to the sides of the pot.
We shall see what happens next. Wish me luck!

Not sure if someone is still replying to this thread - but I’m a long time grower, found some seeds tucked away, not sure what they are. The ilgm labels are still attached - is there anyway to tell what they are ? The bags are NTH-FAP5, BBY-FAP4, and AMH-FAP10. I’m thinking maybe the NTH are northern lights? I do remember growing that one year. Maybe Amnesia Haze for the AMH? Thanks for any help.

Very welcome, I’ll keep me fingers crossed for you…to give you hope I’ve popped some auto seeds from elsewhere recently that were ~4-5 years old. Routine has been putting them in a shot-glass size container of water with a couple drops of peroxide, overnight in a warm dark place and then into soil and they’ve been coming up within a couple days usually depending on environment:

Evangeline is looking a little droopy today on all the branches that are under the dirt. I checked the moisture content and in the main middle dirt that I transplanted it’s still damp but the outside was dry. So I did put half a gallon around the outside hoping that these branches on the outside will sprout roots. I love these little scientific experiments. Of course as long as it doesn’t kill the plant. Lol

Hey Muc, when I transplant, I do it with a plan. I almost always cut of nodes 1 & 2 and sometimes depending even 3 & 4. When I do this, I do the cutting right before the transplant and the wounds where cut will root. I bury the stem up to the underside of the node I did not cut. Works well for me.
