We took a week vacation and asked our niece to water our plants. All of my peppers and tomatoes are in grow bags. I blame myself for telling her to water until you see the water dripping out of the bags.
I really hope they do bounce back. I don’t want the effort out in from January until now to have been for absolutely nothing. They’ve got more than plenty water now. All I have to do is wait and see what happens.
Hey man just wanted to say that we’ve been having a heatwave where I am and yesterday I had about 12-15 plants that looked like this, most much worse actually (dry and yellow leaves), so I rushed them all into the shade and gave them an absolutely soaking and today every single one has bounced back. The worst ones are dropping all the yellow leaves but the green stuff is looking good and healthy again, so yours should be absolutely fine :)
I have seen peppers come back from worse. They will be fine
Peppers don't need a lot of water, they'll come back.
They'll bounce back. Give them a good soak.

They are far from dead. Give them water and they will be back in a couple of hours.
Yeahhh.... This is why I've invested in an auto irrigation system. (It's pretty rigged, but it works)
Maybe something for me to consider for next year. This is my first year growing so I didn’t want to go crazy.
My plants look like that every day and bounce back every night, and that’s just from Texas heat. Yours should bounce back fine

They will. I usually wait until my peppers are just like that before watering them
Release her. They'll come back
Damn, sibling rivalry runs deep
These are not gone. Just give them a drink and keep the sister away.
Sounds like you need a new sister. However, they aren’t dead, they may drop all their leaves, but they will be back. Peppers are drama queens.
That’s not good, not like it was hard to do.
Not like she was staying at my house and I messaged her to remind her too
Good news is they’ll be nice and spicy from the stress 🌶
Frustrating. Those don’t look too bad, though… hopefully they’ll bounce right back!
Oh noooooooo, I hope they come back to life. I'm really really sorry 😞
I've had chillis look like that after a couple of days, especially in little pots!

Give us an update! I bet they are just fine now.
Few days later. Can confirm that thankfully they have recovered. Some have lost some leaves but they are nice and hydrated again
Crush 300 mg of aspirin into one gallon of water and water them. They will be back in about three days
Interesting - I’d never heard that before
