Dealing with heat issues in the desert...
Sounds like you fried the top. If there's still green leaves, or new growth appearing lower on the plant(s), you can cut-off the fried portions, and raise the lights a tad, and make sure she is properly hydrated. Make sure she gets a couple/few weeks to recover before taking clones or moving her to flower stage.
Brings up a good point though...When very hot or very cold, always keep an eye on the ladies. I am in-n-out of the shed quite a few times a day, and am able to verify everything is ok. Try and work with 'em during the hottest part of the day so you get a good idea of the closest distance the heat from the lamps will allow, what circulation is best in the heat... If they can handle the light at the hottest part of the day, they should be fine morning and afternoon. Use the hand-test method. If too hot for you, definately too hot for them.
Or, have the lights come on at night, off during the day. But that's way inconvienent if using the shed for anything else. (yard tools, paint...) Unless you do that gardening and painting stuff at night. :jointsmile:
