Transplant shock

I’m beginning to grow weed and I’ve had multiple failures. Glenda has been my first Success into the Vegetative stage. But then I realized that she was planted too deep in the pot so I moved her higher up. And she has Begun to droop in the leaves. I gave her water. I searched it up and it seems to be transplant. Shock but I am scared that she will not survive this.

How long was it in the new soil before this started?

It has been the same soil that it has been in for about 4 and a 1/2 weeks now. And this is the soil. It started from a seed in after the germination I moved it up because I read that if they sit to low in the pot. Some of the leaves won’t be getting enough sunlight and the roots won’t be able to grow to support the plant correctly.

This is all very overwhelming but I would like to persevere through it. And grow a plant of my own.

I did get on a consistent watering schedule of around 2 to 3 times a week, giving it 1 day to let the soil dry.
She is an auto flower plant. And when she started, show me her fan leaves. I began watering her whenever the soil looked dry.

I don’t believe transplant shock is so much the issue as the soil is. Cannabis plants need soil with adequate drainage when growing in pots.

Your soil looks compact, and could use some perlite to help aerate the medium and create drainage. Judging by the plants leaves and current condition it seems like Overwatering to me.

Overwatering is caused by poor soil conditions. This results in a lack of oxygen to the roots which is crucial for root health, survivial and development. I believe if you were to switch medium to something less dense w/perlite added or add perlite to your current medium and make sure your pot has plenty of drain holes at the bottom, I bet it will bounce back.

Might want to wait a couple days till the soil dries out and give the plant time to chill.
