Transplant Shock??

I’ve been growing pretty regularly since about 2017 and I’ve transplanted many times. I use the same method and I’ve never had a problem. This time I’m transplanting clones for the first time as I’ve always grown from seed. They were doing really well, and I went from a 1 gallon to a 5 gallon pot, in the same medium with the same Organic amendments. They look sad and withered and it’s been five days. What have I done wrong?

Looks like classic overwatered plants. I would get the growbags off the bottom of the saucer with same raised grating. You can also drain runoff from the saucer with a small transfer pump.

It’s hard to tell, but they actually are sitting on grates. I agree with what you guys say as far as what it looks like, but honestly, I only put a couple litres of water in each five days ago when I transplanted and they haven’t changed it in appearance yet.

Plants look to be in a light mix with lots of perlite.
They aren't sitting in water or being watered too much.
Only thing I can think of is, are they directly on a cold concrete floor?
Took me a while to figure out why I was getting tons or purple deficient growth years ago.
After I added insulation under the plants it alleviated much of the growth issues.

They are growing in Promix Hp with a tad extra perlite. Not directly on the floor, on grates in saucers. Still a mystery.

anyway, I appreciate all the comments.
