Sounds like that might be something to consider. If the roots have not developed quite so well for some reason, they will not be able to effectively use what moisture the soil gets from the little bit of rain. The other plants may have established healthier root systems and are not suffering, at least at this point.It wasn't a tight root ball... I actually am letting them do their own thing, kind of an experiment...for the past couple weeks with the geat index ot has been about 100°. They have really only been watered by the rain,which hasn't happen in a while.
If they looked that good and the 12th, they had to droop very quickly before transplanting on the 15th. I'd say that's most likely environmental - heat and/or water. If it were mine, I'd water thoroughly to be sure all the soil is moist, then put them in full shade for 5-6 days and see if the bounce back.View attachment 3443392 this is what they looked like on the 12th before I transplanted them on the 15th they are on the far right

I think that is what I will do,they do seem to perk up at dusk...I appreciate the help.If they looked that good and the 12th, they had to droop very quickly before transplanting on the 15th.

Great to see! Do give them several days to rest and recover though, before going back to the hot sun.View attachment 3443452 not even an hour after watering and putting in the shade and they are already perking up!!!
Oh I will I can't believe how quickly that helped! You can see the difference,amazing how quickly it can bounce back.Great to see! Do give them several days to rest and recover though, before going back to the hot sun.
I didn't think they needed any water the soil was moist under the top layer. ..but it has been very hot and with the transplant I'm sure they are a little mad...If you keep letting them dry out that bad the leaves will yellow and fall off. Or the get dead spots and die off. Then you think its starving or another problem.
If they were in the ground it would be okay to.let them do their thing. Roots would grow bigger and deeper to collect more water.
In a pot don't do that. The roots have nowhere but the pot to go. If its dry, its dry.
Its cool man. Its just that in 100 degree heat is a little different. If in doors in cooler temps the dirt can be dryer.I didn't think they needed any water the soil was moist under the top layer. ..but it has been very hot and with the transplant I'm sure they are a little mad...
