Thanks StaticAsh, I was actually thinking of watering them again, but decided to hold off after reading your advice.

We are finally back to the super dry desert weather we usually have, but I haven't planted them out yet because now I'm a bit worried that after traveling 5.5 thousand miles in a box, then living under a grow light for weeks, now in and out onto the porch that they will burn if I don't acclimate them a bit more to our (usual) weather.

The ones in the yard have mostly survived the unusual weather, the only major rot that has happened is a few flower stems. There are a few lower leaves that were starting to rot on a couple of the really big plants. I clipped those off and am hoping that the areas exposed by the leaf removal will dry out quickly now that it is is the 90s with almost no humidity or precip, and that the rot will not advance.
