These are the new Indigo plants
The first 25 plants started to grow pretty good so I took my best 2 plants and put them outside since we finally got some sun, and kept a bunch inside with a couple of grow lights....Then... it looked like slugs or something was eating my plants so I sprayed them with a homemade solution, put crushed eggshell around then and a ring of copper pennies. It looks like the eating stopped : ) The inside plants are growing and I've been moving them around in windows following the sun or on rainy days putting under the lights. Well, that was last weekend this is today!
What a way to start the day! $&(@#^%!!
I was moving the plants this morning (waaay to early tojuggle 4 plants wearing braces!) Of course, I dropped two and they broke (bent) Arrrgh! I ran with them and dug a hole and shoved the whole plant down in the dirt all the way up to the broken area. One seemed to take (so far) but my best plant looks awful. : ( Even though I taped it together at one of the bends. Boy do they have a lot of roots, I'll have to transplant them again. How are you with plants? I have some window space but the cats take that up..or eat the plants!
As always, thank you so much for stopping by and please leave a comment if you found my blog interesting. : )
I'm so so with plants, but I am terrible about dropping things. It makes me so frustrated.
I think your plants will feel your love.♥
