It needs stem bypass surgery. That's where you cut a straight section of a branch from another plant, slit it down one side, and wrap it around the seedlings bad stem, like a hot dog bun. Basically sleeve over it, so the xylem layer from the branch your using as a cast can start to fuse the stem back together, like a graft.

I just made all that up, but you should try it!

As an aside I wonder if something like that might actually work. Anyway I'm not a vascular surgeon and they are pretty fussy about keeping people out of their lane, so likely we'll never know. Unless we have a vascular surgeon on the board.

I woke up to this!!! She's in coco/perlite under a T5 and has been given only tap water. I'm sure it couldn't be the T5 that she touched!! So I'm thinking I need to feed her since she appears to be losing weight! Should I transplant her six time? Could it be the tap water and coco didn't have enough nutrients. My tap is only 250 PPM (I don't even know the conversion factor of my meter)!! As you can see this is very serious.
