had a stubborn sprout that had to have it's shell removed. After doing so, the first set of non round leaves were stuck to eachother. waited 5 days, and they grew a TINY amount, but were still stuck. decided to try to seperate the leaves. In doing so both leaves were entirely ripped off. Is it possible for these to regrow? The round ones are still intact and green.

Give it till it falls over brown and dead. I got a feeling it will come back and start growing for ya. Dont feed any nutients for quite a while. Dont overwater. Keep the lights on 24/7. Especially if you are using CFLs. 2-3 inches away. Give her time. She may surprise you. Luck

probably should have left the shell on for another day or so.. if they were still stuck together it probably wasnt ready to come off yet.. maybe u planted it to shallow? i did that once and i took the shell off.. and the same thing.. the leaves were stuck together.. i left it be and it just died.. good luck
