Flooded basement plants covered now what?

[bobjob4u]

My basement flooded and my 5 critical plus plants were under water.The water covered the 5 gallon bucks by about 4 inches.For some reason my pump didnt kick on.I have fixed the problem .They are about 1 1/2 weeks from harvest. So i guess you can say they got flushed. I am hoping they will be alright.I dont think the flood water contained any toxic chemicals . Maybe the water will throw my ph off. But being so close to harvest i am just gonna see what happens.

I would say that they most likely will be ok. Any idea how long underwater?? 4' above a 5 gal bucket is allot of water in the basement

i would say 6 hours a couple till it was discovered and then the time to pump it out.They look good a viverant.What i am gonna keep a eye out for is mold.But this has happen before(minus the plants). I have good air circulation and it is quite warm and dry.So thing dry out fast.It was also all rain water. It is cold so i will start the wood burning stove in the basement that should dry thing out.
