Indica plant wilted brown leaves

I awoke this morning and my 10 day transplanted Indica plant had wilted leaves at the top (and in the new growth) . . . Almost as if someone poured some chemicals on the leaves . . . The top of the plant had brown on the leaves and they are wilted and turning into themselves. What could have caused this? It was very hot (over 100 degrees) . . . My caretaker brought me the plants to juice and I'm loving the concept. I think this plant is 2 months old.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you, hopefully the photo will post. I didn't feed the plant just transplanted a week before into new organic soil.

Thank you.

I live in Oregon, USA . . . The day weather is 100 degrees . . . Should I get an umbrella?

she looks hot. you can use a white bed sheet to shade her if you have her outside which is what I'm assuming since you didn't say. if she's under lights (which would explain the burned leaves), you need to figure out some way to cool it down in there with AC or maybe a cool coil/chiller swamp cooler. they have DIYs but they have professional kits too which would help more in extreme heat such as this. I'm hooking up my swamp cooler tomorrow. right now I'm too fucking hot! it's close to 100F but my grow room is 77F:dance013:

i dont think you should kill that plant, just top it it. barely top it, just cut the top damaged nodes and cut off the big leaves let it keep growing. was it in a greenhouse? it looks like it could have been against the plastic on a hot day. im here too its hot as a motherfucker but not hot enough to kill pot plants that are watered not wilted. if that wasnt up against the plastic or glass i dont know what the fuck did that. dont kill it its fine. you wont know the difference in less than a week.

I think I figured out what I did. The plant was outside. I'd watered the lawn and I think the sprinkler got on the top leaves and then the intense heat, 100 degrees yesterday, somehow wilted then burnt the top of the plant. It is already better and I've learned a lesson on being very careful . . . I asked my caretaker if I should get some umbrellas out and she thought not . . . I've lots of extra white sheets though. I'll do that in the extreme heat. Thank you. I'm new to growing although two years of RSO treatment and just started juicing fresh leaves.

I would just water it with 15 drops of superthrive to a gallon of water it helps plants over come transplant shock but next time you transplant allow a few days for the plants to aclimatise to the full sun and being outdoors the plant needs to get used to its new growing area and the more intense light. it also helps to water with super thrive before you transplant it can stop all the shock your plants are having before it happens aloha cls

I've grown full sun plants in much hotter weather and sprayed em in the middle of the day a million times and that never happened. But never the less it looks like a burn il be fine don't juice it.
