Hey everyone i need some help lastnight the pigs when to my next door nabers and nabed most of his plants i was able to get one away but i think she is dying. i had to act quick so i dug a lil around the base of it and pulled it up it came up with this hug root and that's about it. know all the leafs are just hanging there and it looks like it's dying. should there have been more roots. is it doom to die or will it have a chance due to the one big root it had? help is needed before this young lady dies.

you dug up a plant while the cops were next door? you my friend are a hero! get it back into a pot or the ground and get some fresh water to it. give it a few days and it should perk back up. don't try to feed it until it perks up. good luck my brave new friend.

it will live. just let it recover now. don't let it get to much direct sunlight for a day or 2. some, just not the beating down heat of mid day. it will perk up in a day or 2. good save.

mine looked like that once, i forgot to water one morning, come back from work and they were all droopy like yours. soil had come away from the sides of the pots. they were soon to be ok and perk up. Fdd would it be visable to maybe keep them partly in the sun instead of direct sunlight till they perk up???

start taking leaves off the bottom. when you took it out of the ground you didnt get all the root system therefore the plant is trying to take care of a 100% plant with only 70% of the roots it needs.
