I was wondering if I take a repot my plants, do I have to make sure not to cut any roots. Because I just repotted one plant and I lost what I think to be a lot of root. Will my plant be dead tomorrow?


Waiting on your answers before I repot the rest.
 
If I am not mistaken that would cause alot of stress on the plant. I don't think your plant will die, but it might stunt the growth for a while while it heals. Of course this depends on how much of your root was taken off. Heck, this might even have adverse affects on the sex of your plant later if you still don't know what it is.

If you could give us a more detailed description of your setup and plant life cycle that would be very helpful. Man I would be going crazy right now if I was in your place. CraaaaaZzyyyyy
 
If it;'s normal to loose a bit of root then i'm ok , I probably only lost a little clump that's about it
 
It would be like me taking out your spine. Expect stress (more males) as well as stunted growth for a while. Any pics of how much you took off? How far into veg/flower were they?
 
Supposedly............Superthrive helps with transplanting. I always use it when transplanting, but have no idea if it actually does indeed help.
 
i'm 18 days in i lost about 15% or roots lets say. this pic was taken 1 hour ago.
