hey guys, wondering if you can give me some help here with my plants. First, my plants have been vegging in a tent under an HPS for about 2 months in roots. i just recently transplanted and put the plants outdoors. i kind of had to rushed putting the plants outdoors because I didn't have my lights with me at my grow site and only had a few folurecent lights in my garage. I threw the plants outside for a few hours a day for about a week until transplant day. Transplant day was the start of a god damn heat wave! my plants have about 8-9 hours of direct sunlight a day so I'm sure they suffered some when they were transplanted. they were transplanted into subs supersoil . Also, they were getting fed with RO water until they were put outside. Now they get fed with well water after it runs thru a tall boy sediment filter. I really don't have the option to use PH down. I just tested the PH and it was around 6.9-7.2, but really can't rely on my PH pen because its been acting up and isn't calibrated correctly (tried fixing it and think i need a new one). ppm's are around 140-160 after it comes out of the tall ball. sooooo with all that said, what does this look like to you guys? any solutions would be greatly appreciated.

It looks light light burn from the heat wave. Your ph is probably fine.

How bad is it? Unless you can give them a bit of shade until they adjust there's not much you can do.

Are they in the ground or can you move them?

definitly from the sun. Ive had it happen and they grow out of it pretty quick as long as the plants are healthy otherwise and kept watered.
