Is it normal for plants to have slower growth straight after transplanting? I've transferred 4 15days old plants to their final 15ltr pot yesterday morning..after checking on them this morning there's no growth what so ever..but saying that they don't look any worse after transplanting.

Quite normal i would say for a few days, lady is growing roots.
My transplants usually took 4-5 days to start producing new growths again provided they are well hydrated and my last one (1 week after transplant today), still no new growths. But plant is looking very healthy and has a nice posture.
I posted and asked the same question 2 days ago cause it never took so long for me - Answer i got was that as long as the plant is looking fine, then its happening down there where you do not see it. Give it a few days, and off the lady will go again.
Good luck!

Cheers for the info! They are under a 400w dual spectrum and it's distance is 2ft above the plants..would this be too close or too far away?bearing in mind they're 16 days old from sprouting today

2 feet should be fine in my opinion- If you feel heat when you place your hand just over the canopy, then your plant feels it as well and light should be moved a bit up until this heat feeling at the canopy is gone. Mine is at just over 1.5 feet but i am using a 300W full spectrum Mastergrow led.
I've actually tried it at 18 inch above canopy an put my hand above the canopy for about 2 mins an it was perfectly fine but I wasn't sure of the light would be too intense with my plants only being 16 days old
