Default Re: Ensete Glaucum Seedling. Need Help

Thank you for responding. I am concerned on 2 points of your suggestion.

1. The cup it is in is already filled to the top with soil, so this would mean moving it to another container, which I am very hesitant to do.

2. Since whatever roots are there are not enough to hold the seedling up, how will enough moisture be able to supply it if I water from the bottom.

It is really growing well, and using lots of water for such a small thing. Everyday the soil is dry. I neglected to water it one day and the next day there was a brown tip on one of the leaves.
I tried to take a pic to show, but the battery in my camera is dead. I have a pic of it when it started getting it's first leaf, but I don't know where to upload it to, so that I can include it in this post.
