well the CFLs got to 90F at their peak, and i can't see it getting much hotter than that in there after ive taken down the foil and put a fan in there. Is there much of a fire hazard to use paper? im going to work now and popping into the gift shop, apparently shiny wrapping paper is made of mylar, or performs like it, so il see the prices.

Is it possible that the plant is getting too much light? just been browsing different afflictions and causes, i think its either too much water, not enough nitrogen, too much light or its just got plant AIDs and its doomed like its siblings...

back in about 5 hours.

i'd consider paper a fire hazard, painting the cupboard would be safer, foil is safer than paper
you say its siblings have passed on? that's not good, some fundamental problem going on
90 is the red zone, plants are in imminent danger of problems when you hit that, though with a fan you should come down to a much better temp

the yellowing leaves look worse, but the new leaves have grown a little and looking healthy. watered it with rainwater and a bit of that seedling fertiliser, we'll see what happens.

Seeds arrived today :D

also got some mylar in the form of wrapping paper, will get that up for the new plants :)

looking much better! good growth in the new leaves and some colour returning to the leaves below. also, they are not curling down like the others, the new leaves keeping a nice shape :D

Planted a super silver haze tonight that germinated so fingers crossed for the new arrival too :D

a bit scared to transplant it, seems a little fragile, but i do have some good multi purpose compost i used to plant the haze, maybe give it a fresh start.

I noticed the roots and stuff on the soil, is it really bad for the plant? just thought like its organic stuff just leave it there?

the organic stuff is fine, you can leave it there, it will break down eventually
you probably will need to transplant at some point, not sure how big your current pot is

Edgar looking much better after some nute feeds and a new top layer of compost, also a small support rod to straighten him up a bit... still not looking anywhere near 100%.

Super silver haze is 6 days old now, growing so quickly :D called her Doris... feminised seed :P

Mylar working a treat, got the temp to just under 80F in light period and 65-70F in dark.
