Some brown leaves, eh? As long as the shoot doesn't look like a cadaver, water well with a very mild fertilizer mixture...has worked for me in the past. Reduce light to daytime hours for the next few days. Restart regular regimen from there. Don't be afraid to keep trying outdoor periods, just shorter times. Reduces my "hardening off" timeframe to a couple of days when all of a sudden its summer here in New England. In addition, if you can find a nice classical music station to play during the daylight hours, that would be great for their health. A Martha Stewart Gardening piece on veggie growing to put them to bed would be very beneficial. Do not, *repeat*, do not put on the Food Channel segment on Eat The Heat! This could undue all your TLC in an instant......
