I had an incident the other day where my temperature is raised from their normal 80° up to 106° I'm not sure how long they were like that definitely not longer for 10 hours but I added in some fans and got the temperature back down to about 80 to 82° During the day and about 75° At night however since that day my plants seem like they are wilting ridiculously fast. I have watered them with plain water and also turned my lights off anddid a foiler feed to try to rehydrate and he leaves, am I screwed?

Are your fans blowing in cold air? If not its just moving a bunch of 82 degree air at your plants. Whats your humidity looking like?

I have ac blowing in but it doesn't keep up as there's 2 1000 watts in the entire room.so I have other fans just around moving air.... humidity dipped to like 20 but back up since I got temps back down and watered. Now around 40 percent

If your having a hard time keepingyour day Times below 80, I’d look into CO2 .
Then you can bump your temps up a little.

Co2 helps with temps? How?

When enriching a grow space with CO2
900-1200ppm (1500ceiling)
The plant can handle higher temps

At 1st keep temp around 80
Then as to find what they like and can handle to can adjust.
My flowering room usually 86

But if you over do the CO2 you will poison your roots,
It’s best to use a controller .
I give my plants 1 hour to wake up before c02 and stop it about 3 hours before light off to give the plants time to bring the numbers back in normal range.

If your going to invest in c02 , invest in yourself n read some books, it will help the learning curve.

I've misted multiple times daily with extreme serene from roots organic. I've put them with other plants to differ some light intensity. Plain water feed to roots 2x, I will lightly gradually re introduce nutrients. I have done some training, defoliation, and cloning... all in all they seem to be recovering wonderfully
