Plant was devastated by heat jump, none of the rest were affected, should I kill it?

I altered my ventilation system in my tent, and I forgot to flip the switch on the fan that was supposed to vent the lights, so the temp (with circulating fans) jumped to 90 F for probably about 6 hours, and in that time 1 plant, the 2nd healthiest, was wilted to shit, and it doesn't look like it wants to recover, it just went through 1 week of transplant shock, and it was finally starting to come around, new growth and everything, now its completely stopped all growth, and is wilted.

Should I just scrap the plant and try to transplant another clone into its spot? Or will it probably turn around although it looks practically dead (other than some upper green leaves)?

6 hours at 90 and it wilted that bad? That blows man. I had a light issue and it was at 90 for idk how long probably around 6 hours. My og barely noticed. You try misting her to see if that helped?

I Had my extractor fan stop working in my last grow, temp went up to something around 115F. I lost pretty much all of the fan leaves. That was about 3-4 weeks in flowering. I Sprayed her right away with water and I just let it finish her cycle. In the hand I think I've lost about 30% of the weight it would have had if it had grown without this stress.

I would say Keep It! But at the same time I haven't seen any picture of the plant. If its still in veg or 5 week in flowering, I'm sure it will be worth keeping assuming it survives.

***Don't cut the leaves yet unless they're really dry 100%

I agree with green.. If she can be salvaged it might be quicker to recover then start from scratch seed or clone, But yopu got the chance of hermiy from all the stress. Its a gamblers roll of the dice. Good Luck//

Yes it sounds like it has no chance of recovery and your flogging a dead horse.
