It can burn it, yes. The glass filtered total radiation, and likely a good bit of total UV radiation.
Acclimate her a little more slowly, using either dappled shade or a shade cloth, moving the plant under direct sunlight for increasing durations. She'll grow out of it either way, though, even if you just leave her there.
Ok, that droopiness shouldn't be the result of being put out in the sun. Scorching of the leaves (they turn white and get crispy) is normal, that droop is a problem. I'm going to suggest it's transpiration, but the road that takes us down is watering more and care needs to be taken to NOT overwater. Not knowing the temperatures in combination with relative humidity, I'm just going to suggest misting and paying close attention to the moisture levels in the planting media.
I no longer put anything special on the bottoms of pots since I noticed no nurseries ever do that and, side-by-side, note no real differences in drainage.
Yep, the nursery do not do it for a very good reason too. Placing rocks or gravel or anything like that on the bottom of a pot actually creates a pressure differential and make the pot drain more SLOWLY that if it had nothing on the bottom. Always cracks me up when I see people lining their pots to "increase" drainage." I don't know who started that wives tale but they should be slapped.
Those plants do not look too light burned to me, I would be more worried about the droop. Shade cloth is your friend, remember that :)
Lighten the soil up with something organic such as rice hulls (my favorite!). I no longer put anything special on the bottoms of pots since I noticed no nurseries ever do that and, side-by-side, note no real differences in drainage.
That level of cutting you did on the roots is not sufficient to cause that kind of response, in my experience. I can honestly state that many, if not most here, would be horrified if they knew what I do to root balls, and only in the most extreme cases (as in what amounts to complete elimination of root mass) do I cause that sort of response. I'm still guessing that the plant experienced a transpiration issue and lost too much moisture in its tissues too quickly, which cannabis usually recovers from very quickly, in as little as 20 minutes as I've often observed.
I went outside to harvest some salad greens and it's too hot to do that, but I also found fucking pinchbugs AND a bunch of shit (not from the pinchbugs, probably a caterpillar of some sort) down in my beautiful greens! I'm so pissed I could bend a Frisbee in half and shove it up someone's ass. Whoa... that's harsh. Maybe I'm not quite that pissed, annoyed is more like it. Whew! hadta get that out, sorry. :makeup
Happy Independence Day to you, too!
The hose pieces were a fail. I think my husband mentioned something about soy sauce and oil, but I don't know if he used it. I don't think it's so necessary when you're just providing a hiding place, simply because I can turn over anything, even a piece of weed-block that holds zero moisture, and they'll come pouring out. We'll have to try something else for the pinchbugs.
I just harvested so many salad greens (so much?) that I had to use the steel bowl that's big enough to bathe a small child, the biggest pasta pot we have (that I could get to, not the 5gal pot) and then I had to go clean out one of my 5gal buckets and it is filled almost to the brim with greens. A LOT more caterpillar poo, this isn't from pinchbugs, no way. Plus, I found a bunch of green 'pillars at different stages of development. Now that I've harvested all the greens I'll give the area a bit of a washing off, then apply a combination of Bt and seaweed, with a focus on gettin' down in there.
I will be having as cool a day as I can muster! 72F ain't bad at all, we're a bit warmer at the moment.
I'm glad you got the plant issues sorted.
