What's wrong with this clone (Girl Scout cookies)

[cindywhite]

I bought 3 clones to plant outside and one of them started dropping and curling within an hour of it being out there. I put it in shade, but I'm wondering if that will be enough? Do I need to move it back inside? I read if they're not fully rooted they will be more sensitive. In my opinion they were fully rooted, but that's just my opinion. They were in rockwool and I could see a lot of roots. Maybe not a lot of roots coming out of the bottom of the like the other 2 but they were breaking out of the bottom.

You could put them under fluorescent bulbs inside, until they grow stronger.

It looks like shock. The smaller leaves appear to be okay so I wouldn't worry about it too much. It should recover fairly quickly. Good luck and watch out for hermaphrodites. GSC is notorious for hermies. I'm surprised that it's still going around. I grew it once and was furiously picking off male preflowers with tweezers by week 5. No bueno.

I put them back inside because the sun was too strong. Should I leave it as is, or cut 1 or 2 of the really damages leaves off?

you need to acclimate them to the sun, small doses until they are used to it. if growing indoors, don't ever take them outside.

What do you mean by small doses? Leave them in the shade all day? The heat is also the problem. It's been 105-110 since I've had them. I was just letting them root some what indoors for a day or two. They were clones started off indoors.

You're not helping at all.

Would that be an actual screen? I saw some spray options as well.

WHY? you don't understand the concept of getting sun burnt?
