I have only grown in coco and I love using it! However, every time I start new seedlings I tend to over water justa tad. Now it's not all that serious and they all ways recover but I would really like to avoid it.

So, how often are you guys watering your plants from day one to about two weeks?

2-3 times/week with rockwool here too. Just depends on temps and humidity. When they are dry...water them

i waited his time until the coco was dry to about 2 inches deep. that was about 3 days after they popped the surface. the roots out grew the solo cup by day 6 and i gave a feeding till runoff that day, then transplanted like an hour later.

they look fine, just a little droopy...

more annoying than critical

Make sure that your pot has plenty of drainage holes. They might just be shocked out a little from the move. Moderation right now and it'll be fine.

For sure. The pot definitely has good drainage. Like I said it's just annoying.

I'm hoping others input there watering techniques though!

2-3 times a week. For the first week definitely 1-2 times. But like the other dude said it vastly depends on environmental conditions; RH, temp, heat ect..
