sun Sun -bleached leaves

[Diabolus]

Damn, a couple of my seedlings ended up with too much sun. Some of the leaves are bleached. Do these leaves recover or do they fall off. Or even worse, is the plant doomed?

From my experience they won't fall off and the plant won't die unless it's really bad. Sunscald happens......heck I have had it happen on plants that have been hardened off and outside for a month, no worries, it will bounce back with a little TLC.

I wouldn't worry about it too much, quite a few of my plants are sun-burnt and producing OK.

This happened to most of my plants this year. It's taken them a while to recover but they are a-ok now. The bleached leaves did not regain their color however.
