hi, my plant is 2 months old. i couldn't have watered my plant last week and then all of her leaves got yellow. how can i turn them back to green?
and isn't it strange that one week dry period made it yellow?

she is 2 feet tall and i started to give 12 hours dark period to them. do yellow leaves affect flowering phase?

Yes 90F is on the hot side. I had the same problem a week or so ago with temp. had to get an AC window unit. From what i have read yellow leaves from heat stress/ lack of water will stay yellow but new growth should be green. Aso don't expect rapid growth to continue for a week or 2.

the temp probably helped dry out the leaves, i dont think you can turn yellow leaves back green i think only the new growth will be green

yes, maybe. i have never given to it N as nutrient.
Shoot if you were not fed..you be yellow..I went away this month for 6 days and it was hot...they were well fed before I went away...they were droppy when I got back and a good watering, pop up they came...you need N for veg.. thats the MOST important nute. get some food..BUT*** only give it 1/4 strength to start. just 1..then see how it works and reacts .you have to build up slowly...your not going to turn a yellow leaf green, but you can get the new ones fixed up with what they need....When you grow you must plan ahead for these things, or you WILL pay......your dealer....better to spend on plant then prick...Get a 20-20-20, 20-10-10 food.(very basic) Good Luck
