Help with Clone transplant!

Hello so this is my very first grow, and i am doing it indoors in a 8'x4'x7' grow tent (model "growlab 120l") i have two 600W HPS lamps that are on a 18 up and 6 hour down cycle, and i just transplanted 12, 3 week old clones each into a 5 gallon container with "Lucky dog" soil. I don't want to put the clones into shock and need to know how much i should water them. so far i watered them enough so that when i put my palm against the top of the soil of each container it is mildly moist. Keep in mind that this soil is very dry originally and is in a 5 gallon container. should i Water them more? should it be very moist throughout the whole bucket or should it only be very moist around around the clone? please help! I DONT WANT TO LOSE ANY OF MY BABIES!

water the entire area around the plant you dont ever want bare roots in contact with dry soil. i like to do the first 2 waterings close to the plant(otherwise i feel its a waste and leaves roots bigged out in eater too long) then the 3rd be sure to water the entire pot thoroughly.
