Hi. Welcome to the neighborhood .Transplant into cannabis friendly soil in a fabric bag. These are hard to over water.  
What strain? Soil? light name? Nutrients. Ph meter? These will just help everyone get to know your ladies…

So I made a thread the other day talking about this.  
I purposely caused an extreme draught situation to show how much they can take.  
Just water them and if you want to turn down light just for a day or so it want hurt.

Its possible you will lose alot if your foliage over the next week but as long as every leaf doesn’t drop, its a really small chance they want make it, highly likely they will be just fine 👍

> So this is an example of extreme underwatering. And I thought! This is the perfect opportunity to show what it looks like and how easy it is to fix it. I’m just now about to water it and put it back in the tent. It’s literally as easy as that to fix it grin And here’s what it looks like. I will post pictures of it when it perks back up in just a little while.

You will know with in hours.  
You should see a difference in no time, with in 24 hours they be back to normal, other then alot of leaf may fall off, some definitely will…  
But don’t stress, they be fine (probably) 😁

Welcome to the community 😊 I’m with everyone else. Give them a good drink. They should perk back up. And transplant them. 😊✌

I didn’t realize till now, but i saw the last pictures from today and thought that was the post.  
I started to suggest turning light intensity down but without any light they don’t have any energy.

Its not a 100% but most always they can come back from alot …
