so I've moved my grow op into a smaller stealth box ( a modified cooler) for them to grow with out anyone seeing them..
and I've made the mistake of assuming that the new box is adequate in terms of temperature.. the box has a fan propelled intake, and no exhaust.. and has a y-split 2 23W CFL set up, and the space is too small to keep the heat out..and i woke up today and opened it to find one of my two plants totally burnt and dead.. it was a sapling and its bend over and all dried up.. i quickly righted the situation by putting a huge exhaust, a thermometer to monitor the temperature, and only a single CFL instead of the dual set up.. i quickly watered the plant and misted the leaves to try to bring them back.. is there any chance that i can bring a totally torched sapling back to life? my other plant was a little bit bigger than a sapling, maybe 2 weeks with a nice set of leaves already and was getting ready to die, but it'll be alright, it wasn't too bad, but I'm worried about the torched plant.. is it possible to bring back to life this late in the game?

Depends...is there any live green at all..if not then no it is done and dead take it out...if there is any live green parts at all then the plant can usually make it.

please tell me there is hope for the little guy.. it was very difficult for me to obtain seeds, and this is 1 of the 2 plants i managed to germinate successfully, and if this one dies, my luck would have it that my other one will likely turn out to be male:/ I SHALL RESURRECT YOU, YOUNG SAPLING.

that plant very well might just perk back up...I left one too long without watering and it looked like this...it was limp but not crisp...it those leaves are totally crispy then it is dead, but they are pliable but limp just keep spraying it every once in a bit til it perks up...

I think it can make it as long as it isn't crisp...it just looks really really sad right now...but just put it somewhere lit and warm and happy for plants and just give it a little spritz every so often...and it will either perk back up or not...just don't let it go that dry again...lol. No worry of overwater with this one...lol.
