I just gotta say even though you're a new member, you seem to know your shit already. That's a rare trait anymore, lol. Just gotta give ya props man. You're the type of new member I love to see join. You'll know what I mean soon, lol.
Thank you kindly dear sir! I'm not bragging but I've been growing fruits and veggies since I was a very little kid and I'm 34 now. My first veggies was tomatoes and moved up from there. On my property i got aprox 40+ trees on 2 acres .and a 100ft x 100ft area I till under for veggies. Peaches, plums, massive pecans, pomegranate, figs, muscidynes (misspelled) young cherry, yellow and red apple, crab apple, american hazelnut, Chinese chestnut. Just to name a few. I'm no stranger to growing at all. Plus I did my research on these plants before I tied into it to learn its quirks
That looks like overwater. Add drain holes to bottoms of cups. For future reference, use peat cups like the ones jiffy makes. The extra water will leach thru the sides like a fiber pot and help it dry effectively. As stated earlier check runoff ph and shoot for a 6. If that's good give a LIGHT feeding of a quality nutrient product like fox farms stuff. These and all plants have learning curve. Overwatering leaches nutes and causes hell for ph levels. Sort the water, and ph and go from there
Ok will do. I did check the PH level of the dirt from one of the plants and water we use for watering and it was 6.5 but that was before watering them. I should still check the run off?
LOL! Let see how they handle that next "so - can I grow 1 lb under my bed with just a flashlight?" question.
The growth tip and those lowest leaves going yellow/shrivelling - it's all looking normal.
I was wondering that myself. I'll get some bigger pots for them. Thanks.
They popped right back after a move to bigger containers. Thanks!
Yah, ill definitely snip those off. I'm not sure the actual volume. It's just a regular sized folgers coffee container i had on hand. I'm getting ready to move them to 5 gallon buckets in a week or so once the weather clears up, then eventually into the ground.
Seeing your girls green up and reach for the light - that IS the best part of waking up!!
Waiting for the weather to clear? I hear ya!! They keep telling us that it's springtime but here were are on May 9th and morning flurries?
Yeah, I'm biting my nails waiting for springtime this year, the anticipation is killing me!
