Unhappy

ok I just found out that growing 2 plants in 1 pot !
isn't to good. (on the long term)
So i decided to seperate them into 2 different, 4litre plastic containers.
Which i should of asked question on transplanting!
before doing so .
While i was removing the 5" plant!
i damaged some of the bottom roots ?
what should or can i do to save the plant?
The horror happened 3 hours ago.
its a little crooked.
will it survive?

Smile First, B Mellow

Your plant will probably survive if you treat it gently. just Don't overwater. It's going to show some signs of transplant shock and will probably stop growing for up to a week.

if you had 5" plants growing together in the same pot, you were bound to get some root damages separating them. just consider this a lesson learned and an example of why it's a good idea to research before you plant.

good luck, post back to let us know how she does.

Cool

thanks a million ORGANIC,
you bet i'll be gentle with her/him hopefully her.
I've seen this picture where this plant had a plastic pop bottle cut in half (top half) over the 5" to 9" plant.
Any reason why? and can i do this?
thanks again

You could do it, but why? You'd just be trapping moisture in there as well as diluting the light it gets.
