Hey wassup everybody. I've been working with this small crop since June growing in the same area with out any problems but just recently we've had abt 3 weeks of temperatures well above 97 . I'm guessing the Heat wore my plants out. What do you guys think ? It appears salvageable because other then the withered leaves and drooping the stem bodies look fine too me . guys think I can save them simply by just letting them "cool off" for awhile orrrnah ? I currently have them resting between 76 and 80 right now . also will removing the dead foliage help anything ?IMG_20160706_073320.jpg IMG_20160706_073021.jpg IMG_20160706_073544.jpg IMG_20160706_073648.jpg IMG_20160706_073721.jpg IMG_20160706_073806.jpg

They look over watered and the soil doesn't look to good mate. Looks like its holding a lot of moisture to me.

Well I ruled that out because they only get water at least every 4-5 days and even then I only base it off how deep down the soil has dried out . probably looks that way because they jus got watered yesterday. I live in Texas that's why I'm leaning toward the heat we go weeks with scorching temps and these were fine until they got left alone during a move in a garage with only a couple fans for a week

Think I should swap out the soil just too cover all possibilities ?
how much water are you giving? that size plant should only need maybe 8 ozs of water every 3-4 days, maybe a little less. Most would say the pot it is in is too big for a plant that size.

What kind of soil is that? are you giving it any nutrients yet? what kind of light or is it outside?
