I just transplanted my girls into a DWC 3 days ago. I'm seeing new growth on them. Along with new root growth.

They seem a little droopy and its concerning me? Is this over watering? or is this how they look when you grow them in DWC from all the water.

For nuts Im using gerneral hydroponic 3 part system. I have there feeding chart and Im at around 1/4 strenght from what you would use for seedlings. I have very little nutrients in my water around 138 ppm right now

My ph is around 6.0. My tempature is 77 degree's. I have a metal halide 400 watt light 16 inchs from my plant

In my tub I have R/0 water about 1 1/2' from the baskets.

I don't have any type of drip system running as the roots are already touching the water. Im using rockwool to hold the plants up with hydrton.

Maybe my plants are in a lil shock from the transplant? I also dosed today a very small amount with mag/cal.

Here is a picture of what one of them looked like before I transplanted her.

a little droopy but everything (your numbers) look fine to me. just keep that mH on her and she should bounce back just fine.

Sweeet thanks. I bumped my ppm up to 250 with nurtients. Im seeing alot of root growth. My plants are looking a little better. I think they should be okay with 250 ppm because of there size.

I keep my water 6-8 inches away from my net pots. If you have a good bubbler/airstone you should be fine. I keep my levels like that from seed and (2-3week old plants) have 7 inch roots with crazy feed hairs. The space allows for much more oxygen. Try it. Oh, and my leaves don't droop. I am using the same nutes but at 325 ppms. Good luck my man!
