My Mochi's have been doing a slight taco on transplant also, but usually clear up in a few days.
The Octopots instructions (maybe not now as Chris from octopot is finding out more about what they can do) said to add 1 quart of water to the top with a new seedling or cutting. And let the roots seek the water in the rez.
I found that is a sure fire way for me to lose my plant. Instead I have found that it is better to completely water the fabric sleeve and let the roots follow the moisture down to the reservoir. Maybe adding a cup around the plant if the top dries out to much before the roots get there.
In fact it is forgetting this that was a major contributor to me needing the clones.
Anyhow, Mochi being a cousin of the Cookies. I figured it was due to the damp soil. She did not seem to like that a lot. And has since perked up with fresh leaves with no signs of stress. I know to let her get her drink from the rez, with minimal top watering. At least I think I do, they can certainly change their ways right in the middle of everything and throw you off.
