I would love to be able to test the soils levels, but we dont have anything to do it with, and were already tapped out (gotta chill with a sack everyonce in awhile too ) But there is alot on the future grocery list for them. As for the watering question that arises, it could be that I just took more control over that, because some plants were getting the drooping leaves so i diagnosed that. I highly doubt that it is bugs, just because its extremely cold for bugs, and we are growing indors, also this is the only plant with problems in a small space with others. We were spraying them with water for awhile though, but i will be sure that doesnt happen again, dont know why we didnt think of the light magnification to begin with....DURRRRRRR!
