Hey everyone, 2nd-time grower here. 1st time was in hydro, this time I wanted to switch it up and saw the ease of soil with the yields of hydro, so coco sold me. I bought some compressed no name brand coco brick and did the pillow case rinse until the water came out clean (20 min rinse with tap water), then I mixed 60:40 of coco to perlite. The clones after I transplanted them (about a day and a half ago) started to droop. Initially, I thought it could be transplant shock or over watering, so I put them outside to air out a bit and attempt to have them dry off. But as I checked on them again today, they haven't perked up and the soil was dry, so I re-watered and snapped some photos hoping you all can help me out.
Growing them in a 3x2x7 tent with a 400w MH/HPS set up. Only outside cause I thought overwatering might be an issue... No nutes yet due to them being transplanted a day and a half ago, but was planning on starting 1/4 strength tomorrow cause of the neutral medium. And for nutes, I was just going to do heads formula with 1ml Cal-Mg.
Also, how moist should the coco be before I rewater it?
Thanks again for the help everyone, if this grow goes right; ill do a journal.

Sunlight is pretty strong for the little guys, probably ok in small doses. Maybe a little shade cloth until they get stronger. Putting them outside may also invite pests. Keep an eye out for crawlies.
My plant is 27 inches tall, lots of buds and full of crystals, pretty dense too. This is my cfl grow, what do you think?
Man, you should REALLY consider the 315 CMH vs that 600w HPS. If you can do that with those little cfls then you should crush it with CMH!I am on my 4th grow with coco coir, water goes right thru it, you cant over water it, but you can over nute your plant, its best to under nute than to give it too much nutes. I have been using cfl's, but iam going to go get me a hps set up today. I think with hps my buds will come out better. My plant is 27 inches tall, lots of buds and full of crystals, pretty dense too. This is my cfl grow, what do you think?
