wow! That is really amazing! I probably didn't kill these little ones yesterday then.

I was very worried about mine. Everyone was showing horrible yellowing and obviously screaming at me to fix something. Every leaf was affected at that point and if they were not yellow, they were a very sickly looking light green. I pulled the worst looking one and replanted her in a new 1 gal nursery pot with Happy Frog soil. The root structure was appalling. There was no root ball and very little dirt tried to cling to the few roots that were there. There was very sparse root development except at the very bottom of the pot and 90% of all the roots were concentrated in the vermiculite at the very bottom of the clay pot and were sitting in the stale water trapped there. No wonder we were turning yellow and starting to die.

I have repotted everyone now after seeing that. I tried hard to keep all the roots intact and spread them vertically in the new soil. After 12 hours, everyone is still standing tall and not wilting... We will see what happens in a few days but I am hopeful that we are now back on the right track. I also expanded the grow area quite a bit with the assembly of a new 4x4 Sun Hut. Now... after all this, I am going to work on my patience and just watch them for a few days with no more meddling. Live and learn. I will be so much better at this on the next round.

Here are the pictures!

#4, don't freak... thats dirt on her leaves... I will clean her off in a bit

#2, yellow in her indifference... fitting in with the crowd better though

Happy New Year Everyone!
