you have done some damage to the roots, just fill the new pot without air pockets to 2/3 then put the exposed roots flat on wet coco, from there fill to just above the rock wool cube.

 

pack the soil down a little or next time wait till roots are visiable through drain holes and use all the water that pot holds in 1 day or less..

 

To fix the shock from tansplant and broken roots keep the soil moist not wet and you will need some kind of root tonic/ booster starting from seasol or of same brand as the nute you use or my favorite rhizotonic. its oerfect for seed young plants and any time you need healthy roots first50% of the grow.

 

50litre pot of coco shouldnt have much more than 10 water/ rhizotonic the pot shouldnt so heavy you cant lift it. remember the root ball today is only the size of a small ball in a month you will feed 10 litre each day.

 

 

Goodluck anytime you feel coco breaking up put it back into its pot and wait before re repotting..
