After a major transplant, what should the watering be like for the first 24 hours? Any different? And should I do constant light or keep the same schedule?

Try to keep everything the same, for sure keep the same light schedule. You don’t want to stress them any further. Not 100% sure what you mean by major transplant but if there was any damage to the roots the only thing that may be affected is the amount of water the plant uptakes. Keep a close eye on it and try not to overwater

Major meaning first time, I'm a newb...still figuring out everything lmao. But lighting schedule so far I've had it on 18 hours a day 6 off...might be too much?

No 18/6 is perfect in my opinion just keep it like that. Don’t overthink it you probably are doing just fine. If you did it without causing any damage to the roots your plant will continue to grow as normal. If you see your plants drooping it’s a sign of transplant shock but they will bounce back within a few days

I'm not sure what your growing in. You want to water it thoroughly at transplant. Then just keep the medium moist for about a week. If in soil, no feeding unless leaves are yellowing. Then at half strength or less. A ph of 6.2-6.5 is my range to get them going. I only use 40W LED lights at about 6". On for 15. Off for 9. Gives the roots a chance to catch up and the plant a chance to rest.

Yeah this morning was the first sign of Droopy leaves but now it looks like it's sparking back up so thank you for the advice I appreciate it!

So far I've kept this particular grow very very simple so I can learn the most out of the basics.

Spray with water once a day. You have more vegetation than roots. The plant can't drink enough yet. Don't drown them thinking they are thirsty. Check my journal. There's a pictorial on the subject. Post any questions or comments. Rather see more people growing plants.

I will dude, that's awesome thanks! Since this is an unknown sex unknown strain I definitely hope it is a female too early to tell though.
