Has it been inside, in a pot, and you just put it outside today..in full sun?
It is important to let plants acclimatize to full sun.

I am surely no expert, but have experienced young tc plants and fairly high temps. I planted some outside in July, when it was 105. I worked them into full sun, from full shade over a several day period and they were able to survive the heat okay.

good luck
