plant has drowned

hey guys i had a plant of lemon skunk that i left in a sheetrock bucket on my deck. while i was at work i had a tremendous rain shower and when i came back my plant could have been swimming, instead of transplanting it i just tried to drain the excess water out. About a day later the plant was in bad shape. most of the leaves had wilted and died. i finally tried to plant it in my backyard a few days ago and it doesnt look too much better. is it a gonner or do i have any hope?

leave it alone, let it drain out and recover. I would be careful if it's hot out and in direct sunlight, clearly already weakened. Gl with her. Keep her from getting more rain on her roots, i dunno how maybe a tarp around her base since you planted her.

it sounds like you need more perlite in the soil, and larger drainage holes in the bucket...

He put it in the ground.

in that case there is not much you can do now. Make sure any soil you transplant it in can drain well and is not compacted...

hahahahahahahhahahhahahaahahahahahah

good luck! hope it works out
