Welcome to RIU :hump:

They'll be fine. Hopefully you didnt damage any roots during the exchange but even then you still have a great chance for survival.
 
OK so two of them died almost immediatly, the other 4 are doing ok. now we have 2 DWC buckets with 2 plants in each one. a 400w MH, good exhaust, temp and everything is good.

its been a few days and 2 of the plants (one per bucket) are wilting a little bit and have some yellow leaves. both were at about 400ppm of GH flora series nutes, ratio of 1-1-1. I finally was able to get a Ph tester and adjusted the PH to between 6.0-6.5 for in both the buckets (this was after I noticed the problems with the plants). I figured this could be one of two things, a nutrient deficiency or a pest problem(the guy we got the clones from had a pest problem =() so... I upped the PPM in one of the tanks to 600ppm and sprayed all 4 plants with NEEM (kills bugs and such). I am currently waiting on results.

if its not obvious the reason I only upped the PPM in one bucket was to see if the plants in that bucket improved, and if they did do the same with the other.

this may also be important: the yellow leaves are at the bottom of the plants.

ANY suggestions, advice, obvious things i missed? thank you

WATER TEMP?
foliage spray?
ppm to high!
additives?
lighting?
 
now all the plants seem to be wilting some... and a few of the leaves seem to be turning up at the tip.

one of the plants looks the healthiest but has some yellow discoloration around the edges of its leaves

anyone know what i should do here
