I'm not able to see your picture.

Are you using a plastic bag for a humidity tent?

yes I am using a plastic bag over 4 dowl rods, but I have it hanging over it as to give airflow. When I had it tightly over it I noticed a fuzz (mold?) on the leaf so I now let it hang over it.

It looks like you've been using mulch instead of potting soil.  I would re-plant using a mixture soil, perlite, and sand.  I'd suggest layering an inch or so of perlite (and fresh orange peels) around the top to discourage bugs.  A saucer full of beer generally distracts slugs and sometimes snails, those lusches.  I would also guess by the color that she is getting a little too much sun :cool:

It is a soil mix from miracle grow, guess it just looks like mulch. thanks for your help I will try the fresh orange peels. Around 10 oclock we have an army of slugs on my back porch more than I've seen anywhere, so I may have to try the beer too. For now I am going to keep her inside for at least a week or two so it can recover.

thanks for your help 5 shrooms to you :smile:

I may repot as you suggested but I will wait for this guy to recover a little first as the soil is doing ok. I don't want too much shocking in such short timespan.

that link is going in my bookmark, it's time for battle. :box:

here is an update: I moved the lone plant inside, it seems to be doing better but has another bug problem... not sure what they are but I am going to do my research.

here is the best pic I could get of the bug. Almost seemed like it was hanging from a weblike structure but not sure... I am thinking of spraying them down with some dish washing detergent diluted.

here is the plant as a whole, starting to pull out some new leaves.

That looks like some healthy new growth. I wasn't able to enlarge your pic, but it could be spider mites? I've had Luck getting rid of them by 'mulching' perlite over the top of the soil.
