Are you referring to cuttings taken as clones? Those are kind of hard to over water with no root system. Can you be more specific, if it is a cutting, what do you have it in? If you say a cup of water, I'ma gonna slap ya.. LOL

try using a cloning gel next time around. works perfect for me. I use it, then stick them in rockwool under a dome till roots develop.

prolly just a little shocked from transfering. if you do have roots dont over water them cuz they need oxygen and will rot out.

clones try using some cfl about 2-4 inches away. maybe lighting wasnt sufficient.

just buy a EZ cloner and you will have to do nothing but fill it up and turn it on, then you will be rooted in 10 days.

Do not overreact. It sounds like simple transplant shock. Do NOT place close to lights for next 48 hours. This is just a suggestion. Let them start recovering and showing it before you get them back to strong light.
