HEEEELP...... Heat Stress ????

[Digital Buddah]

I got nailed by a heat wave earlier this week and 1 of my plants (the strongest) got hit pretty hard...

- Ive kept the nutes to very minimal and have been still watering it and keeping out of the sun - and since I have pulled off basically every fan/sun leaf since they are all toasted. and even the new leaf tips are starting to toast - I feel like ive already pulled off most of its leaves and the plant will be bald if i pull of the rest

- it just started flowering about a week or so ago. The whole rest of the plant and stem looks healthy outside of the leaves, so I was just wondering if it was too far gone or does will it bounce back?



thanks for any help guys

if you dont have buds yet I would keep spraying here with water from a water bottle. checking her really often. dont pull off al the leaves or it will die for sure. if it is just way to hot for her tie a tarp to give her more shade during the hottest part of the day. ths spraying I talked about dont do it when the sun is beating down on her it will burn the leaves more...

she doesnt look too bad

I'm certainly not the most experienced grower here but I'd say they look to be in a bad way. It may be possible to get them soaked and see some bounce back but I have my doubts.

yeah thanks guy....man i dont know what to do


this baby looked liked Tyson in his prime till afew days ago


- i know some can bounce back pretty well but this thing looks like its in pain

im not very experienced but I have wilted many a plant in heat including some clones. I just baby them back. I left a batach of clones outside in the heat for about 15 minutes and thats all it took. Lost one had three that were questionable but if there is enough leaves I can usually save them.

She looks pretty beat up but I would say just keep up on the watering and you will be ok. You would be amazed at some of the plants that Ive seen survive that I had written off for dead. Its just too bad it doesnt have any veg time left. Its definitely going to kill your yield.

man what a costly mistake.....

well thats how you learn i guess - wont be turning my back of my girls again....


again i really appreciate the help

i agree with 2dog....baby her with a squirt bottle late in the evening...i had one plant that the dog ate all the leaves off three times...was so worried till i found out it was a male....but he grew fine

+1 And I want to add to put a little kelp solution in the water when you water or spray. Shade is key. Anything will help. A week should do it and hold off on pulling any more leaves. Live with ugly for a while. Too much stress already this week. It can be saved.

TLC baby...a nice Sauna would do the trick for sure.
As mentioned above several times...hydrate...hydrate...hydrate

Good luck, you will save her bro!!!

I would not spray water on the plant during bright daylight - as it can lead to water droplets that magnify the sun and burn the leaves.

Get them soaked right when the sun goes down with a spray bottle spraying water only on the leaves; then, light nutes before sunrise. Remember when it comes to watering with nutes...h2o(nutes) + sunlight + co2(outdoor air) = growth

I dont get it....my plants endure 90-105 everyday with a drastic drop at night into the low 40's so far....darn you marijuana*shakes a homer fist*

Strain


U growin indica or sativa? Whats your RH%?

 

[leafminer]

Agree with OG. Strain. Indicas / Indica doms don't seem to stand high temps.

yea i agree my indi in the last real heat wave here took a beating but watering early am /late pm will help alot . Right now she's doing great with 6 main limbs and budding fast ~
