I feel like crying.

Its been 37c here today and my grow room is usually 5c above outside temperature so on hot days I have the doors open and aircon on.

Today I got held up at work for 4 hours.

I got home and found my babies singed! not crispy yet but limp and curly.

Will they recover, the buds are still ok, will they grow with few leaves if they die and fall off?

baby the hell out of them, they should be able to recover. also, your pics may be too large for the format that they are in, if you cant resize, try changing the format. pics really help you get some help around here. if you still cant get it to upload, you can try hosting through photobucket or something similar.

pictures added now, it was just not uploading and timing out.

been spraying them with water every so often, added a new 150mm outtake fan.

leaves are getting a little crispy now but the flowers are still moist.

Glad the temp dropped 12c the last hour.

**update**

it seems my babies are still alive but 70% of the leaves have dried and died.

Can the plants survive on flowers and a few older leaves long enough to grow new ones?

buds need leaves to feed them so they can grow your bud production is probably suffering -air conditioner? swamp cooler? whole bunch of oscillating fans? I'd try to cool em off somehow heat stress,while strain dependent, can cause many problems from stretching to hermaphroditism good growing

yeah like I said, it got hot I'd open the cupboard, with the new fan its no higher than the room temp so When I go out ill just leave the aircon on low until this summer heat dissipates.

They have lost nearly all their leaves now, one was a hermie the other a girl, the hermie has actually produced a few seeds over the last few days so I've pollenated a couple of branches of the girl to see if she will use any energy to make some in case it doesnt recover.

plant 3 is still doing ok tho, a few burned leaves but she was next to the intake fan all the time.
