Dehumidifier been directly on plant for 24 hours

Andybell87 · Mar 18, 2026

Hi everyone,
I'm week 5 into flower growing in Coco and just using A and B with a little cal mag throughout the grow, yesterday rushing around before work I emptied my dehumidifier it's running none stop and gets the tent to around 40% rh, when I've put it back I've accidentally had it directly hitting one of my plants for 24 hours until I've checked my tent again.
This is the current state of my plant, the soil hadn't fully dried out but the leaves have become very brittle and depressed.

What's the best plan of attack to help the plant recover? Should I just water with Ph'd water or give it a light feed?

It looks a little wind burnt. I dont think there is much you can do at this point, just get the blower off the plant.

Thanks for the reply, I moved the dehumidifier away from all the plants as soon as I spotted this.

Ive never had it before, I suppose it's all a learning curve.

Bummer yes nothing can be done for the leaves that are dying. It will still have those inside smaller "suger leaf" to help pull it through the final few weeks if she take that long. Sorry for the shocking looks you got from her but she'll survive and still bulk up more. Once those leaves go dry just snip them off and carry on. Good luck!

Would you say it set the plants back at all? Or by the end was it even measurable? : )

I guess it stagnated the flowering period but it did make a full recovery

I was more worried about the other plants in the tent if it caused the plant to hermie as she looked pretty rough when I first saw her compared to the rest.
