Transplanting Babes not working out??

Ok so I have all my ducks in a row and counted all my levels were right, Yet when I transplanted them yesterday I wake up to find all of my babies dead or dying today.
This is very frustrating because that was the last of my good seeds.
Is there anything one could think of to save some if any before it's too late or is it probably at that point.
Superthrive is not so super either.:wall::wall:

need pics to help probally.... superthrive is very potent little goes long way , when i transplant from solo cup to 3 - 5 gallon container i use zero nutes..(plenty of nutes in soil for veg plants) try to keep young plants under flourescents for a bit n establish some roots..good luck

how the hell do plants die after a transplant? did you use chemicals to clean and forget to wash them off? I can't think of anything that would cause plants to simply die after transplant unless you totally damaged the root mass. Maybe you over watered or have pests? They may be ok just give them some time I once forgot to turn my areo cloner back on after adding water to it for 24hours and all my clones were all dead looking. I turned it back on and misted them and they came back to life. Lucky I have an areo cloner or it would have been 2 weeks of pre veg rooting down the toilet. My suggestion is run back through what you did maybe your soil was bad or your water was ph'd wrong. If anything give them a few days they may just be stressed out. I had one plant die on me once for no reason at all.
 
Have to wait for the pics, I don't have a phone with a camera on it.
Man I did everything right as far as I thought.
I need to go back to the basics that got me the beauties I have going already.
Less is more. Must have used just a drop two many of the superthrive? I guess.
Last time I did not use any root hormone before putting them into 5 gal container.
This time I did and BAM!!! Death.
Gonna go back to the basics and start with some good clones from my friend.

If you grew them from seed and were transplanting them into 5 gal containers ... what did you use root hormone for?????

Root hormone is to get a cutting/clone to grow roots, there is no reason at all to use it on a seed grown plant that has roots ... unless maybe you want to kill it.
 
You got me man (Tomatogrowop), that's why I asked. I'll give it a few and keep them in that room under the lights.
I tried some PH down fore the water, but did not even water them yet with it.
I misted the roots a few squirts with a mix of superthrive and water that I've had waiting for this point.
No pests that I or a magnifier can see.
I'm hoping it won't be the 2 weeks down the toilet.
Happy Frog potting soil with a tad bit of top soil, nice fluffy and porous.
I put them into a smaller container for the time being (Space issues)
This is 26 plants I'm talking about here, not just a couple. Basically a devastation if none take.
Removed them from the dome after hardened and the roots where protruding.
I'm new to indoor growing.
In the past it's been Germinating, planting in a small container then taking a walk in the woods on my property.
?
 
Well damn Grump you just cleared up everything. Superthrive, supposedly good for everything.
Thats probably my mistake. F**K MY LIFE.
There is still hope, Good friend heard of my prob and is willing to give me some clones of his great strains that he has worked to establish for quite awhile.
Thanks man1

Next time you trans just take the plant and use soil and drop into the new pot and soil. Do not add nutes if your using soil.
The might be ok, you may have just stressed the shit out of them. Alot of the shit on the market for growing is useless.
