Ok just making the statement off the bat. I'm a retard and shouldn't of done this. So save the comments. I'm here to learn and fix my problem with my plants.
My plants are about 2-4 weeks old and I noticed that they were getting attacked by little leafhoppers. Te little fuckers didn't die with neem oil or insecticidal soap. I looked up a home recipe to kill them. It was a garlic, onion and mineral oil mix. Here's what went wrong. Dumbass me used garlic salt instead of the powder. I sprayed it on and the next day my plants looked all shriveled up. It's been about 3 days now and they are not looking any better. I'm afraid the salt messed up the leaves. The stalks on all of them look and feel strong.
Here's my question. Even though most of the leaves look dead. Will the plant come back from something like this? I would post a pic but don't have time at the moment.
Thanks

So out of 250 ppl no one can help me? Come on. Not every person who views your thread are able to respond. Guests (unregistered individuals) as well as members can view threads too. They just cannot respond to threads until they become registered members. Keep that in mind and just be patient. A member with enough knowledge in dealing with your specific problem will eventually drop by and answer your questions.

So I'm going to update for those people who were wondering what would fix this. I'm sure this method would of worked for other chemicals that would get on the leaves or even for dying leaves. Luckily for me the stalks on all of the plants were not harmed by this. Since so many people responded to my question I decided to figure it out myself. I let the plant get its shit together for the first two days. I figured they are pretty stressed out for what had just happened so I didn't want to add any nute, fertilizer or water until the initial shock went away. After that I gave them all a good watering. And every day since I've been picking off the dead leaves until there were none left. I figured the plant was trying to fix itself and focus on the dying leaves instead of new growth. Well I did the right thing. All my plants are now growing healthy new leaves and stems. I realize tht I'm pretty much starting the vegitation stage over again but atleast I saved them. I learned a huge lesson that always follow directions and to not be a dumbass. Lol
Hope this helps some of you who make a mistake or even if you have leaves that are dying.

Hey!!! Welcome to the club. I'm glad you got things goin' your way. I've been tryin' to grow the dank for about 4 years and I still kill a few plants a year... ....Knocked a couple in the head yesterday trying to save them from root rot in my little DWC rig. But then I'm always tryin' new or different off the wall ideas (or nightmares) with my growin'.....Haven't had to buy any weed in at the last 3 years so I guess I'm kinda holdin' my own.
Stay hooked up with the forum...The answers are here...Just gotta dig for them every once in awhile.
Good luck and keep us posted!!!:cool:................J.

I think maybe it's a little too much to expect the forum to be able to provide you with a "Dr. Bombay" level response (see Bewitched). I too, like you have had to do a lot of learning curve work on my own. Good luck amigo verde.
