Rockwool overwater maybe

I let them dry out pretty good until the roots are established, then not so dry but still dry...lol if that makes sense.
That look too dry? First Rockwool run... I watered heavy 3 days ago (transplanted into 6x6's watered that night and next day fed) and they looked droopy so I'm concerned on N tox or overwatering, cubes are light.

You could probably let them dry out a bit more. They look over watered, or cal/mag def...but im no expert in def, i usually just flush and start over...but i would def let them dry out a bit more.rockwool may seem light, but its still full of water.

For me, they usually have grown a solid 3-4 growth nodes before roots are fully established in the hugo blocks.

Thanks for getting back to me so fast.
How often do you water/feed when this young? At this rate I'm almost 1 week since I popped them in the 6x6's. I'm for sure getting some sort of burn tho , Seeing it on the tips. I flushed one this morning because she wasn't looking to hot and to experiment see if it helped.

It actually looks like they are under fed and over watered. A week in the blocks, depending on the room, my room in particuLar, once a day is all they need.

Yeah im letting them dry out. I'm in a 4x8 tent at 73f and 50%. Going to feed a small amount tomorrow to the roughly 8 that look overwatered and the rest normal.

You could probably water less than. My veg sits at around 85 degrees, 40-50 percent humidity, with co2 augmenting.
