I left my plants out in the sun for three days?
Question:I'm a bad plant owner & forgot about them and now they are on the verge of death and turning brown. Anything I can do to save them??
Answers:
First take them away from direct sunlight, and place them somewhere they can get light, still not directly.
Water them, but do not soak them; you might kill them as well if they get more water than the necessary. Keep the soil wet; it might be necessary to water them every 2 days.
Trim any damaged leaves and branches, but wait a few days until the plant is nicely recovered.
Good luck! I hope they can be saved.
poke some holes in and around the roots and water. Be sure there is a whole in the bottom of the pot to ensure the soil is well drained.
I would find a big bucket of water to soak the entire pots in for a day or two. Let the water come about half way up the side. Then trim off any dead or dying branches.
just water them real well and hope for the best.. Don't soak them for an extended time, though.. soaking could drive the final nail into the coffin of a dying plant. Plant roots need to breathe, and they can't do that underwater.. moist is good... drowning is bad!
