    Was away from my grow space from Friday to Monday. The previous week I had given each plant in its 10cm pot 100ml water and that was too much, and really didn't need to water again for 48 hours. With this in mind I gave my plants on Friday 150ml and though that would be, not perfect, but ok for leaving them 78 hours. I guess in that week they becmae much more thirsty animal! Came home to find desert like conditions for the soil, and my beatiful 4 week old plants wilted in the extreme.
    I gave them in total over two doses 250ml each with nutirents and the healthiest 4 are reviving fine, though the smaller 2 look to be a no hope.
    Given that my grow room is only big enough for 4 full size plants no worries I guess... but what will be the longer lasting effects? Stunted growth? Smaller yield? Any thing I need to look out for... other than realising I should have asked my flat mates to water them!

    No they should be fine. Just remember how they looked with the leaves drooping. When you see the lower fan leaves starting to droop it is time to water. The girls like a good dry/wet cycle.
