ok i forgot to add that the brown section is flimsy as fk. (litereally) the cfl bulb sat on the stem for about 20min. the chopstick is a makeshift brace and that upper portion pass the brown setction is being hanging on. without that chopstick the upper portion WILL fall. im trying to keep it straight just in case their might be live cells inside the middle section. obviously the upper portion is still growing, but maybe thats also why you guys are seeing the nute deficiency ?? my theory is that the upper portion will eventually die off since its only feeding off itself because the middle stem has been dried out?
When the light section fell the bulb also landed on 1 other one directly and basically bleached/dried/ or killed the whole thing. leaves and all. it was just a solid white plant.
