organiclover nailed it.on a transplant with the wool,i have found it better to dry them a bit more than 50% after that first watering. it will drive more new roots into the new space and ensure you don't over water. i let em go for 2-3 days. lift the pots when they first get watered if you can't weigh them and you will get a feel for the water uptake and evaporation that takes place.So this is my first time using this media. It is called FWOK, which is made up of bulk rockwool and foam cubes (to hold oxygen). I just transplanted out of 1/2 gallon pots in to 3 gallon pots. Plants were drinking once a day. They would be significantly lighter the next morning.
I transplanted these 3 days ago, and they were getting light today so I fed them. At this point should I be watering once a day to keep fresh nutes and oxygen in their system, or let them get significantly more dry and then feed them?
I see a lot of people watering once a day or more from rooted clone.

I just learned that this is the same problem that tomato plants suffer during fruit set that leads to "end rot".You are getting the start of a CA deficiency by the looks of the leaf tips. Next cycle you can add 98% CaCl2 at .2 grams per gallon and you can also spray Ca25 once a week thourhg the end of stretch to avoid this and have slightly healthier plants.
Great job though so far!
Going in ~600, out ~500. Been bouncing around those numbers all flower.if you can next watering, get a sample of the run off and compare the EC and ppms to what you are feeding with.

also Dank, if you can , use a syringe and pull some solution from the mix itself, near the bottom of the bucket, this is the most important set of numbers IMO as this is whats going on right at the roots.you may already do this but i like to get other sets of numbers from fellow farmers. thanks.
