2nd week flower-fried my leaves with spinosad!

first off, i apologize for not having a pic, will get new batteries for the camera tomorrow (payday)

here goes...i'm in my 2nd week of flower, and am battling a thrip infestation...i got monterey garden insect killer w/ spinosad, and i sprayed my plants, problem is, my stoned ass didn't dilute the solution! a vast majority of my leaves and brown and all dead looking, however they don't "pull off" easily, so they're still hanging there...

there's a few spots here and there (say, 5% of my crop) that wasn't sprayed very well by myself, and is green and beautiful like normal

i'm flippin' out here! even combing through forums, i can't find answers to my questions, like, will my plants heal? will they regrow new leaves?

i was thinking (just THINKING, i don't need a reply on how dumb i am), is it possible to put my girls back on a 20/4 veg light schedule? i know you can reveg a plant after you've cultivated, but can i throw 'em back into veg until they've regrown some foliage? i mean, 2 weeks into flower, if it takes 3 weeks for them to even bounce back from my fuck up, my yield is gonna be shit...

any input would be great! tomorrow for sure i'll have a few pics up, honestly, i don't know how much that would help though, i've been a regular here on RIU for a couple years, and whenever someone posts pics where plants aren't even as poor looking as my own, it's followed by a flurry of comments to just pitch 'em, try again...

I'd keep everything the same, no need to stress them any more. They will either recover or not.

It's a learning experience. Mainly, not to be messing with chems and stuff when you're ripped.
