they probably can't stand the intensity of the direct sun yet ... place something next to them, to give them shade, gradually introduce them to the full sunlight, over a period of 3-4 days ... (I'm not a hydro guy, but that would seem true for any kind of grow) ... :smokin:

Aero like an EZClone or aero like they were in there more than two weeks?

So they had a root system app. for aero, not soil.

Keep babying them, they'll adapt.

You're not overwatering, are you? Do your tubs have drainage holes? If not, drill them out.

yea i put holes in it and not over watering so i hope it perks up.now the watermelon plants i did the same thing and no wilting at all so i guess it depends on the plant
