Question
I have a small Nepentese truncata and I have it under a grow light.  the light was knocked over by my cat and became to close to the seedling.  When I found it the older leaves look blistered and wilted but the newest leaf so far looks ok (the whole plant consists of about 5 leafs and is about 3" accross. is there anything I can do to save this plant or do you think its probabaly too far gone? I dont have a way of posting pictures unfortunatly. Thanks for any help.

Answer
Hi Aaron,

If the growing crown of the plant wasn't damaged, it will probably be fine.  You'll just need to give it time.  Cut off any severely damaged leaves.  A weak fertilizer would be a good idea also.  An orchid fertilizer mixed at 1/4 strength applied to the remaining leaves and soil once every two weeks would be good.

Good Growing!
