    Under watering, pump failed!

    Hi, I'm in need of some advice please. I've recently been away for a long weekend and have retuned to find 5 of my 6 plants almost dead due to lack of water. I have a hydros system with a failed pump.
    5 plants have completely wilted while 1 plant managed to pull water directly from the nutruant tank and is now 1mtr tall healty and well in to flowering.

    What I need to know is, A, Is there anything that will save the 5 plants & B, At what point should I throw in the towel and pull the 5 plants to concentrate on the 1 healthy plant. Will the 5 rot the good plant?

    Thanks in advance.

    i cant tell what kind of hydro setup you have, but i know if those were all in a dwc setup, those dead plants would fuck up the water. dead shit in your resevoir is baddd....

    They're toast friend, toss 'em before they alter your solution or attract bugs.

    If you didn't take clones before flowering you might try re-vegging that nice plant after harvest. Then you could get clones for your next crop.

    Good luck.

    Cheers for the feedback I've come yank em out in the morning. Its a damn shame, they were looking so good. I guess the next time I need to get someone to baby sit while I'm away. Still I have one healthy plant left. Probably not worth the electric but at least I will have a smoke.

    Damn shame. You know, you could cut a few clones and root them and they would be in flower when they rooted. This would set you back a couple weeks, but better a couple weeks then a couple months. I can see an easy five clones from your plant (including the top). See how stretched out your plant is now? You'll be amazed how nicely and tightly WW fills out after it has been cut.

    Also, there is at least one active thread here that deals with getting your hydro healthy with dead roots in the sytem. Has to do with adding hydrogen peroxide to the nutes. You probably should check that out and follow the dead root protocol.
