It sounds like the plants have gone through a couple of different shocks: First they didn’t get any water or soil, and then they were planted outside and watered plenty. They might not come back, but the best thing to do would be to let their soil dry out to a depth of about 1 inch. Water sparingly. Also, this advice depends on where you are located. Here it is currently the middle of summer.
