So there was a flash flood overnight. Just when all 7 seedlings sprouted, looked good and were getting on their way a flash flood came. As of now all 7 seedlings are under water by atleast 3 feet. I am just so pisses rite now. All the time money and effort I put into them so far has just been blown out of the water(yes pun intended) due to some flood. Now I would assume that there is no chance. They are seedlings under some chemical toxic river water for probably anywhere from 12hrs to a a day. My only question is, is will they have any chance of making it if they are still in tact? I think Im already aware of the answer but id like to think that theres always hope. Any answers?

I put them out on june 1st. The temps just started looking great with a real nice week. Like high 70s with nights being in the low 60s. I figured it was a good time. Why wait? So I pit them out and a week later, BOOM. flood.

I don't think they will live. But assuming you spent about 8-15 bucks per seed from a seed bank. I would Dig them up and plant them in something with drain holes to drain the water. I think you'll have a good chance doing this assuming they aren't all fucked up looking because they have been sitting so long under water. If they do survive I bet they will be strong as fuck(what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, most of the time)

Damn that sucks man but you never know. When I was doing hydro for the 1st time my dog knocked all the plants in the Reservoir and I did not know they sat under water for about 18 hours. When I put them Back up under light in 4-5 days she started looking nice again.

No don't wait the more you wait the greater the chance of them being dead. Go dig them up and put them in solo cups with lots of holes on the bottom so they can drain. You said there babies so digging them up won't be hard.

Theres no way I can get to them. Its like a small lake rite now. The only way I can get to them is if I go through the water or get a boat. As soon as I can get down there I will put them solo cups like u said.
