Hopefully she starts reaching for the light in the next couple days, maybe it's still shocked from the transplant. I I was under the impression there's no such thing as over-watering as long as you have enough are bubbles? The water level is at least 3-4 inches below the bottom of the net cup

they can be too deep in dwc imo especially young. More liable to stem rot if theres not a small airflow and tbh, the bubbles splash enough onto the upper part anyhow :)

The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear.

Thanks grouse, if she's not looking better by tomorrow I'll drop the water level again

I set mine to roughly half a inch below the pot bubbling and have no problems, could say she's thriving

Hmm, what depth did you set it at clone/seedling stage? 3-4 sets of leaves I guess.

Just lowered it quite a bit, roots just barely in the water. I'll see if that helps

I found when my roots were all stuck together with water like yours, was over watered. You may have your turbulence a little high for the level you had your water set mate. Rekon you be right with it lower.

Only thoughts mate as I said I had a lot of drama getting them started in my main system. In my mind its a piece of cake but reality wasnt. I still never got one to go lol. I found aeroponics far easier at the seedling stage.
