That type of wilting I've only personally seen when water was too cold. You can't just use water straight out of the tap in the winter. (depending on where you are)

Overwatering isn't the amount, but watering too often, never letting the soil dry out.

It almost looks like you didn't water them in well enough at the transplant and there isn't good contact between the rootball and the new soil. I really saturate with water when I transplant.

Of course, 55* water could very well be the problem.

I use Smart Pots.( Love these things )...but I still use a 50 / 50 mix of soil and perilite. And the bottom 2 inches of the pot is nothing but perilite.

Also keep the pots a few inches above the floor as this will help with drying. I have my plants on a metal grate about 3 inches above the grow room floor...this allows airflow below the pot.

That's a Great idea I'll try that. I also have 2" of perilite on the bottom and mixed in the soil.
