This is the first time I've ever grown a plant. I used potting soil that had been sitting out on the porch for weeks. My plant gets about 1 week old and I find out its infested with microworms and fungus gnats. I then get some of that same soil and cook it in the microwave for 10 minutes on high, to sterilize it. Well after about 4 or 5 days in this toxic overly microwaved soil, it starts to wilt. To top that off, I forgot to put it in the light for like 7 hours and had to change its schedule completely. By now its almost completely dead and I could see it just giving up, wilting almost all the way down. Well, to conclude my anticlimactic story, I replaced the soil once again with brand new soil from the store. Right when this poor little plant was about to completely die, it started accepting the new soil!! In 10 hours it went from almost dead, to thriving healthily up towards the light!!
