Hey guys- so we had a week or so of pop up storms that are very normal here in the south. Almost every afternoon.
Went to check on the plants today and a few of the 6-7 footers are very droopy. I’m sure it from over watering.
Should they perk back up after a few days or is that to hard to call? Baring a few dry days of course. There is probably not much I can do but just wait it out?
All planted directly in the ground.
Any one go through this before ? Thanks for your time

Yeah this happeneds from time to time with outdoor growing, they will come back no worries they just need to dry out alittle with a couple dry days,

I'm right there with ya, sharky. All of the plants I'm running outdoor this year have been constantly soaked. finally getting a few days of dry weather for them to rebound and then another few days of downpours. While it does slow down growth, I'm not too concerned until it gets well into flower-then I'll worry.

I think your right bro, after seeing that pic i dont think thats from rain, do you by any chance have termite/ants around that area ? because iv had something like this happen before, lots of died leaves that shouldnt have died yet and whole branches died off, it was from termites in the root system

Hey- funny you say that, I had a plant the other day that was completely chewed through and fallen over. I thought termites but no leaves were damaged.. they just sawed through the stem. This one, after the rains is when they started drooping. I have a few other in a completely different spot, same things that’s why I think it’s the rain.
