Plants stopped growing after trauma

I had someone looking after my plants. They got spooked so a few weeks from harvest they decided to throw them in a bag and give them back to me. So I've set up a tent and tried to revive them.

I have them tied up with sticks the plants don't look dead but I'm waiting for the white hairs to turn brown and I've been monitoring them for a week and there has not been much change. The plants don't seem to be doing anything.
Is it worth leaving them in or do I take them out? Will they still be any good even with the white hairs still there?

The plants are fine! They are going through a period called revegging - I think that's what it's called... Notice the new round leaves that don't look right - They will return to normal looking leaves. This is a long process and could take another month or so to shake off and go...

They have good root structure and WILL take off....

even if you shocked them and they are stressed, just watch for male flowers, worse thing that happens is she hermies and you take her early. That bud is nearly ready anyway.

so what are we saying? is it worth leaving them in for them to pull through or give them an early harvest?
If I leave them in will it affect the taste/high at all? because I cant handle shit smoke :lol::-? bit gutted!!:cry:
 

THE KONASSURE

spray with triacontanol for more flowering, more hairs buds get bigger

or spray with GA3 to induce some vegging growth (risky)

or just feed mostly potassium to finish her off

They look like they'd be worth finishing and see what you get. How long were they bagged for? It will take a moment to get back into bloom, but they should start re-adjusting to 12/12 anytime now and they don't look like they have long to go once they do. As Purplehays1 said, watch out for nanners. I think the outcome will be a salvageable smoke that might be seeded, and obviously the added time to flower.

They were stuffed into a bag and probably for about 6 hours as I was it work when they got kindly delivered :roll:.

I gave them 24 hours of solid light to try and strengthen them up and they have been on 12/12 for a week or so.
Will stick with it and see what happens thanks all for the advice! Will let you know the outcome :weed:

the 24 hrs of light was a bad idea, flowering plants can handle extended night but not extended day, keep at 12/12 and monitor for herm, she is fine
