The plant is 6wks old 6 1/2" high and have 5 sets of nodes. The bottom and middle leaves are still looking good. The top leaves aren't brittle. Just dry and dull looking.

if all the leaves arent dead, and the stem is still standing. it could survive. but if only a few of the leaves are dried out, i would just clip them, they will not go pritty green again, or even green most likely.
i made a grow box once, with no circulation. and a grow bulb. i put in a foot tall plant, and the next morning, the plant was burnt to a crisp, all brown and crispy. it was so hot in the box, i could barely pick up the plant container, the soil was hot to the touch. ( i forgot to mention that this grow box, was an old mini fridge.) i thought i had made a good enought circulation device
