So I put my wife in charge of my plant for two weeks while I was gone. Came back to a shocking surprise. Plant lost all of its leaves. All were brown. So I trimmed off all the leaves and the shoots. The roots are still growing, and it looks like new shoots are coming in as well, its been "out" for about a week now. Will it grow new leaves? Should I put light on it? I know its not dead, its just royally assfucked.

It will not regrow it's leaves, if anything it will continue grow normally and sprout leaves as it goes. However, losing all it's leaves may cause it to gro quite slow since it has little resources for photosynthesis. The cannabis plants are resilient so if you think it's worth your time to wait then give it a chance. Hope it works out for you. Good luck :-)

One time, I had a Beautiful planted discus fishtank.... I was gone for two weeks and left my wife in charge.... Who decided that to clean my fishtank, I needed an apple snail..... Who was like " Yeh!!!! Salad heaven!!" The only things left were all the little root bulbs...... 30 plants.... Including beautiful amazon sword plants.....

No, think of stems as the plumbing of your plant, piping water and nutes to the leaves and buds.... If anything, cut off all stems leave a good few inches or so, so that the "plant" doesn't have to work so hard transporting "stuff" to places it doesn't need. The plant is super stressed, so now you're just trying to unstress it enough where it will want to live.

Do put a small cfl on it, 24/7, for 2 weeks, then reduce to 18. If it's not popping ANY sign of new growth at all... Compost it....

It's a lowryder it's only 7 inches tall. It was just a twig, but now stems or shoots are coming in and at the tip of them I see a little white speck: I assume the leaves will soon come in?

Oh and I noticed now the root growth seems more significant now then it was with leaves.. is this some kind of survival mode? Will it veg back even bushier?

Sounds like new growth is coming in, OUcH that it's auto flower/lowryder..... keep a light on it, just never know.... It'll be interesting in a month if it makes it.

is revegging possible even on an autoflower, Mr Sunshine?

No it wont reveg but it being so young helps alot its just going to suffer yield and quality wise it will continue to grow its not going to be as big as it could have bin and it will take longer to finish now.if it is an auto i personally would leave my light on 24/7

Btw, whats the deal without being able to clone an autoflower? IMO autoflowers seem sorta useless to me atleast... Just get a genetically smaller plant and 12/12 right off the bat
