CFL fell on seedling, half left!

One strip fell when they both werent secured to each other.
The plant ended up with half of itself inside the spiral cfl and it got burnt!
What can help this seedling out?

Was one of the starting serrated leaves torn off ?
Thats what it looks like to me.

Hard to tell from those pics just how much damage was done to it honestly...

Was the stem burnt at all ?
If so, it might not survive too much longer, or it might just pop back up.
Its hard to tell really.

I would baby the hell out of it n see how it does.


I had one of my plants grow into one of my cfl's when it was just a seedling.
Only the tips of the leaves got burned by it, and its still alive and doing fairly well.
It is a bit stunted compared to the others I started within a few days of each-other. Its still doing ok, but was definitely stunted by that burn.

nvm, the light fell on it again hahaha
I wish it didnt, I think it could have lived... and yes, pretty much half of the plant was taken off by the cfl. This morning i found that the plant could stand on its own.. too bad it got burnt again :(
