Big drink and shade should revive them unless
they are crispy then there's no turning back unless
there is any new growth.

Propping up the buds does help with stem flow to
perk the buds back up even sooner.

And another thing: shut off your caps lock.

I CANT EVEN READ THIS SHIT, LOSE THE CAPS MAN!

Got any pictures i would just like to see your plant.

That plant looks fine.

Fans are "canoeing" a little bit which is a key sign of heat stress.

Good news is it is not terrible and there aren't any fried fans yet. I would raise the hoods a little and try to keep airflow circulating. Keep an eye on bananas, ball sacks, hermies, whatever you wana call the pollen throwers. Some plants tend to hermie under heat stress.

No need to try to overcompensate with watering. This will only stunt or slow her down more. That said, I wouldn't let her completely dry out either.. Just watch her.

If it's a real hot day, you can always turn the lights off for a 24 hour cycle. This won't affect her in a negative way and might save her some unneeded stress. Running lights at night will help in heat reduction as well..

... You can do a 24 dark without harming the plants or stressing them... Always?

Seems it would induce stress no? Only in flower late in the cycle ?

No not always. If heat issues are present and causing this problem and it's not insects or the immediate medium.. Then this is a good option.

I am providing him an option that might help his particular situation.

Yes this will cause stress but it should be minimal in comparison to heat stress. The plant looks far enough along in its flowering cycle for this technique to be helpful. That's why I offered it!

There are always risk factors when stressing the plant whether it be from heat, too little water or food , insects, over watering or feeding, plants too close to the light source, plants exposed to light when they are supposed to be sleeping, etc..

There are even products like snow storm that contain tricantanol which intentionally stresses the plant causing higher resin production

Fun fact is that some plants react extremely well to a 24 hour cycle off, with no lights. Like a little break for them. Makes them hungry for light and sometimes increases vigor and resin production as well

Good point about the maturity of the plant though, indigrow..
