Wow!! My 4 plants just got hit by a major hailstorm. The leaves are still standing but it exposed my vine quite a bit. Do you think they can still survive? If so, how long will it take for them to recover??

Plants will look a lot better in 10 to 14 days.

A shot of sea kelp and a fungicide...and she will be good as new...as long as the pumpkin and main vine is intact.

I use Immonux and Clearys 336. Any fungide will do in a light spray over the plants
