Outdoor Light Burn

[Dachem]

So I had obvious lightburn leavesleaves turning lime green and leaves forming a v up to the sky some yellowing these were moved Outdoors a week ago last year I did not have this problem but we've had a very funky spring and degrees 20 degrees above normal I use CFL and led I did not adjust them Outdoors temperature at night around 60 the time has been around 80 only ones really affect are in full sun I guess my question is will they get used to the full sun or should I dig them up and move them

If you can, put a shade cloth over them or get something to shade it from full sun. They'll get acclimated but the sun can do a lot of damage to tender unhardened plants

I vegged them to about a foot before they went out but yes I will do that thank you I was worried they wouldn't acclimate.

Burned mine, too, they are recovering.

 

[Dachem]

Mine definitely look worse I'll get a pic when I go out

Then you need to shade them, for sure.

That reaction is commonly called 'taco' for the shape of the leaves. It is the only possible reaction from a plant that has been forced into a high-flux ( too much light ) condition and is being forced into excessive photosynthesis.

It also is a diagnostic for how mature, healthy and extensive the root system is for that light level. When you get taco, the light is essentially over-running the ability of the roots to support transpiration, a side effect of photosynthesis. The response is a last ditch effort to slow things down before the leaves that are reacting, dessicate. If it fails to work, the leaf will be auto-pruned and wither.

The more you know ...

It's also kind of frustrating because there is several sites that say you can't get light burn Outdoors obviously not true

That why people harden off their plants. They live most of the time even if you dont.. If they are really small they just cook to death
