2 of my three girls got blown over and pummeled. They were not yet trellised. These were storms we weren’t expecting. Nothing looks broken, can they be stood back up and supported?  
This week has sucked for my plants.

Thanks, I’ll need to rip some boards and make trellises. These plants have made it through snow, frost, tornadoes, hail and extreme heat. I didn’t expect this.

I’ve had plant’s down before so I found a tree limb and soft yarn type rope and tied around the stalk and pulled them off the ground that’s really the most important thing is keeping them off the ground as most finds the Sun and pulls thereself back up 👆 That was a miracle your plant’s weren’t damaged Good Luck Down the Road this outdoor grows always have unpredictable things happen

Stand them up and support them. If they were in the dirt wash them off with a garden hose. They’ll be fine. By harvest time you wont even be able to tell.

I had the same problem last year. I made this out of concrete mesh, with t-posts pounded into the dirt. We have had a few storms lately, and the plants are standing like champs, not going to happen this year. My plants totally cover the cage now, and getting full of buds.

My outdoor girl has taken a digger twice this summer. The first time i had a split…both times i stood it back up and within 2 days it looked healthy as can be.
