After reading through some other posts, noticed I should have had water up to the net pots (so they are up to an inch deep)

Id love some more input from this community, thanx

Transplanted 2 from soil to clay pebbles, very decent root growth in the soil, carefully washed most of it away / dangled the roots on the bottom of mesh pot and slowly filled with washed clay pebbles.
I'll wait and see how they go before I transplant the last 3.
Gave up on the small / close to dead clone, so now there is 12.

Started my first grow 2 days ago after I got some clones from a friend of a friend.
I got 7 x 3inch tall clones in rockwool and 6 x 5inch tall clones in rockwool in soil.
A couple of the small ones that were only in rockwool started looking a bit crappy yesterday, looks like they dried out a little while I was busy making the tubs.
I haven't transplanted them all yet, until I know they aren't stressed from all the environment changes last couple days.
I'm not sure how often to water.(Been hand watering every 4 hours or so when im awake)
I'm not sure if the nutrients are a bit too much.
I'm not sure if my light is too close or not close enough.

Any comments / suggestions / help will be appreciated.

My setup is;

1.2x1.2x1.8 approx. grow tent
400W MH Superveg
2 x 6x6 mesh pot trays on 40L tubs

Temp is around 22C.
PH 5.8
Not sure on humidity, I think it would be too low.

Nutrients (Reccomended levels from back of bottle)
CYCO Platinum Grow A & B
CYCO Ryzofuel
only adivice i can give is ditch the cyco line nothing but hassels with that shit

Well im not using CYCO Grow A & B at the moment, just PH'd water.
But im misting Ryzofuel to help with stress relief and I used it this morning during the transplant of 2 of the soil plants.
Everything has been looking up since using some Ryzofuel.

Moved from tent to 1.5ft deep x 6ft high x 8ft wide closet.
Added Carbon filter and fan.
Added water pump and drip irrigation to one tub.
Swapped useless air curtains for large air stones.
Started to see some early signs of root rot and my local hydro store gave me some samples of "Great White", Awesome stuff !!! I had white roots shooting out of the old roots within hours.
I topped 2 plants to see how they'd respond, they responded well so I topped 5 more.
Not running much nutrients, just 1/3 strength CYCO Grow A, and the Great White.

There's a good chance i'll have some extra cash in the next week and ill be upgrading to decent gear.
New ballast and globes.
New single buckets, reservoir, tubing, water pump for RDWC.
Bigger air pump
