Thread: Week without water

    Default Week without water

    Hi all,

    Unfortunately I was recently taken to hospital unexpectedly, and as a result my 3 plants went unwatered for a week.

    It's difficult to get pictures up atm, but I would appreciate any input for any of these.

    Plant 1: this is the biggest one. About 4/5wks into flower. Every single leaf has completely 'drooped' but they are all completely dry, a few are green but most are brown. But all are dry and look dead. I have watered this plant twice now and none of the green leaves came back to life.
    If all the leaves are dead, does this mean the plant is dead? Is there any life in these half grown buds?
    If it is completely dead, is there anything I can do with these 4wk old buds/little groups of calyxes?

    Plant 2: Was ready to harvest before I left. Came back to fat smelly buds that were just drying on the plant. Only needed to hang for another 3 days before they were ready to jar.

    Plant 3: was alive and pretty healthy! Big green leaves, seemed to be thriving - isn't that a bit unusual after a week?

    Cheers

    You would be surprised at how resilient these plants are!

    It's hard to tell without pics but even the 1st one could very well be savable!

    I'd just water/feed and see what happens

    Got a sifter box so I'll make some hash. I'm pretty sure it's dead now, the stems just snap like sticks.
    Tho I'm still curious to know, how to know if a plant is officially dead. If every single leaf dies... can the flowers still be alive?
    Cheers
