all of my plants are drooping and the soil is still damp. Do I need to trim the folaige or just hope they pull through the shock.

look closely at your plants - are the leaves drooping including the stem all the way to the main stem, or are the leaves curling from the leaf tip in? drooping is probably too little water/transplant shock whereas leaf curling is probably too much water.

Well this is common friend don't freak out either simply get a product called anti-wilt concentrate mix the solution and give your leaves a good misting. make sure you keep them very humid while there recovering from shock. another thing to check would be your soil make sure your soil is airy and light so its easy for the plant to grow, if your able to take your soil and squeeze it and it stick together than that means your using soil with to much clay. so yeah anti wilt mist lots of humidity and honestly if you have the possible to use hydro i would make a flood table and use hydrotin for your plants. my flood table stays moist all day from 1 flood.

Sounds like the beginning stages of root rot from too much water...

Also, going from hydro to soil is never a good thing..

Sometimes it works, and sometimes it dont.

It causes stress on the plant and can cause them to go into shock. the best thing you can do is keep it moist and warm. humidity should kick them up
