    Hi All
    I've got some cornichon seedlings grown from seed. They have been coming on nicely in a propegator in the conservatory. As it was nice on sunday i thought I would leave them out for a couple of hours which was a rookie mistake.

    The leaves look wind burnt have I ruined them?

    Cheers
    Paul

    Looks like the true leaves didn't get wind-burnt, only the seed leaves?

    Either way, I reckon they will recover, just sets them back a bit (and potentially weakens their immune system until they recover ... probably not an issue, but "increases risk" of something taking advantage of their depressed state)

    I know how they feel!

    That's great thank you. All might not be lost. Every day is a school day isn't it.
