wilted, but not dead... if autos, it'll be more impactful.. with photperiods you can easily jsut get them back to full health with the cost of time and a normal yield you expect will result. i'd irrigate with water only or a very low ppm of nutes -- this is precautionary in case the evaporation over 1 week caused significant buildup in substrate -- less likely, but be safe. Also, you'll likely need 2x the water due to extremely drue substrate. When super dry, it will repel water a bit and it'll take more to saturate the soil the first time back. So, just irrigate them back to health... low nutes the first time, if any... if all looks good, go back on a regular feeding schedule you had before, if it was working well. it's still green.. doesn't look crispy and falling off plant... chances are very good. as long as you have some/enough green leaf that recovers, it will recover, because it can still process light for energy.

Hey @Ema26! They don't look too bad. Just give them water as you should do (maybe a little more) and avoid giving them fertilizers for 2-3 days till they recover. Have fun!

As long as they're in a big enough pot and temps are around the 26c mark they will be fine, it's actually quite a good thing to do every now and then to promote root growth, "drought simulation" you can call it. 👍🌱

Hi, Don't worry, 1 week without water is not a big issue. Give them water and they will be fine 💪

Hello.👋 I live in the desert and have had this happen many times...both when i was being a bad grower and from environmental issues. All the plants survived. Just water them like regular and me extra mindful in the future. You can also give kelp extract to be like a cure-all....and if you don't already, consider a silica supplement in your weekly diet. It helps make stronger resilient plants. Happy growing. ✌️

Should be fine you'll see them perk back up usually a day after a good watering. No need to worry at all. Better to underwater than over! Happy growing!

You can save them. Give them water at a ph of 6.0. Add a little cal mag. If you have growers recharge They’ll bounce back faster
