Ok, so yesterday we had record breaking temperatures here in The Portland area (about 100f here at my house). My 1st year Centennial hops did not do so well. I watered it and in the morning ( it looked like it was doing well with nice green leaves), but by the time i got home in the evening, my little 1 foot high hop plant had mostly wilted shriveled up leaves and did not look too good.
I watered it again. Checked it this morning and it looks the same. Almost all the leaves withered/curled/dry....Could the heat have damaged it that much? Is there anything i can do or can the heat cause them to bite the dust when so young?
Today is hot again.....not as hot but 90f..watered them this morning......can the heat kill them when they are this young and small...this fast?
