There are getting thirsty about every 2 days i been giving about a 1/2 cup when in solo cups and now that most are in 5 gal fab pots i give 1 cup. My light has been at top of tent because it was so hot in my lung room. Then the temps fell way off so i am able to have it at 30" at 100% its a 400 watt led vs4000
I thought water to thats why you see they are moist.
i use 5 gal pots, at this point i would be doin about a half gallon or so every 3-5 days depending on how fast it dries up
after 30-40 days depending on soil, i would start goin to like 1-2 gallons every 3-4 days when u start adding nutes

Those plants are very close for a drench to dry cycle. Watering sparingly is important for the 1st few weeks until the roots become more established. Leaves will also droop right before lights on and lights off.

Id drench to dry also at this point. Once you drench pick the pot up and see how heavy it is. Wait for the plants to droop then feel the pot, thats how light it is dry. Muscle memory. Then youll be able to guage the moisture in the soil just by barely picking up the pot.
So like water until there is runoff? Then let it dry?

Slow water over about a 30 minute time in small amounts to allow the soil to soak up the water. You will have a small amount of runoff at the end. Youll know when she cant hold anymore.

No need to guess when plants need watering. Water slowly until good runoff, at least 10%, it helps keeps salts flushing. Then wait until the leaves are obviously wilting. Probably takes 5-6 days for indoor plant. Once it wilts you know to water it one day sooner. If a plant is in veg it will recover from the wilting, if it is in flower the leaves that wilt will die off.

Ya that’s what happened is my guess. I had same thing going on.
When you FIM you wont see any changes for a week or so. The plant is recovering from the stress and healing itself the first week. It will start to resume growth after that.
