    I have been at my Dads for 2 days and we have had brilliant sunshine, I've now returned to a very wilted greenhouse :( I have wilted...cucumber, chillies, parsnips, and carrots...mostly seedlings.
    do you think with regular watering they can recover? :(

    Up to a point, yes, but past that point I think they can't recover. I would certainly give it a try; I've come back to basil so wilted I thought someone had squashed it, thirsty peppers, and a few wilted tomaties and they all bounced back. Just try not to let it happen regularly :D
