Emergency... or she'l be dead in an hour...

[retuks]

I must act fast...

the leaves on my drooping plant are still drooping from last night, only they are thinner and the stems where they join the main stem are starting to turn slightly brown. the top of the plant has recovered back to an up-right position, however the leaves are still sad and seemingly getting sadder.

i was wondering what my course of action should be:

A) hope it will come back from remission and recuperate.

B) cut the lower leaves in half or completely off to help take dead weight off the plant and use its energy to restoring the rest of itself.

should i take plan B? or what other methods of salvation can i take? maybe 2 roots snapped off the system after re potting. but it still had many roots left! however its not recovering from yesterday.

what should i do???

BTW my second smaller plant from yesterday is fully recovered and no longer drooping. though none of the roots snapped from that one :toilet_claw:

transplant shock takes time, especially if you broke off roots.

whatever you do don't cut off the drooping leaves, that is not the proper course of action. if the bottom leaves end up dying it's not a huge deal, as long as the new growth is still going strong.

smoke a joint, relax and wait a few days.

thanks... i hope it works. its hard to refrain from THINKING that cutting leaves will lighten the burden on my plant. ive also taken your second bit of advice and made a step back from reality . btw, i looked at ur grow log and for awhile it looked like your lights were swaying back n forth woah! tripps.
