Signs of Heat Stress in Silverleaf nightshade

Symptoms

In summer, Silverleaf nightshade should be maintained below 86℉. When temperatures surpass 95℉, the plant's leaves might lighten in hue, curl, become prone to sun damage, and in severe instances, the entire plant could wilt and desiccate.

Solutions

Prune off any sun-damaged and dried-out portions. Relocate the plant to a spot offering protection from midday and afternoon sun, or deploy a shade cloth. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
