Well its my fault because I went on vacation but heres how they look there day 53 auto-flowers. The leaves are falling off and look shriveled. I know its under water bc I did not water them for a week straight. But should I keep them or toss them?

Sorry I forgot to mention this is two days after watering them, they did not really change to much but the pot felt lighter as if they still are drinking.

Should not be any deficiency, I give them each half dose of big grow and 1/4 dose of tiger bloom every other water, for a certain amount of time, I was doing it every watering but on one plant it showed some nutrient burn so I stopped. Also I was doing Full doses of Big bloom before that but then stopped after day 45. They looked good before vacation.

Plants are like having pets, you just can't go off and expect everything to be fine. Would you leave and not feed or give water to your dog or cat? Same goes for your plants.

Yea I know I said it was my fault, but my main thing is will they survive or should I not waste the time? Tomorrow will be day 53, yea they had started to flower on day 45 so I gave them 1/4 dose of tiger bloom.

IMO, keep going man, don't be a bitch. Give small waterings more frequently throughout the day and see how it is after a week. I'm guessing it will take a bit to get back but it should come around. Make sure it has plenty of fresh circulating air as well and even spray the leaves. I had a clone, decided I'd sit it outside for a day and it literally got cooked because I forgot about it, but after 3 days or so it started nice new growth but it was so stunted after a week I just tossed it. Probably could have got it back if I didn't work that week but figured that's probably not worth it haha.
Also, try dropping the temps a bit, nothing huge just a couple of degrees.

Give them some seaweed extract, had to leave my grow room for a week once and came back to find my drip system was not functioning properly and my plants looked similar to yours, just gave them a dose of cold water processed seaweed extract and within a week they came back nicely!
