robyoung is beginning to sprout.

Well U might need to take a deep breath first, but I would just wash the roots clean off the soil, and pop it in the pebbles.

Use a tub of warm water, with a weak flowering solution mixed into it.{warm, not hot}

You can also buy stuf that stops stress in transplants.
I can't think of what some of it's called, maybe "thrive", {but not the tomatoe food thrive}, it's a hormone solution.

Anyway, put your plant roots down in the container of warm hydro solution, and any majic stress mix you choose, and massage the soil gently off the roots.

If you make sure the bubbler is working well, and the roots are getting wet straight away with loads of oxygen, they oughtn't look back at all.

I'd also probably use a flowering mix for the first week or so at least, even if they are still in veg, to help the roots a bit with extra phospherous.

That's the way i'd do it, I think. As that's what I have done with other plants that aren't pot in that same situation, and it worked a charm.

All this is assuming hey aren't giant plants already.
