Dixie Angel....I haven't been keeping any records, so I can't say without going back and reading all the threads to tell you when I first transplanted. I started my seed on Dec 15..four days later I had sprouting going on, I'm thinking it had only been a few weeks. Later I'll go back and look through the threads and write it all down and then post it. Penny...we'll be glad to help you figure out which is which.

Hi everyone! Well, I had to go out of town suddenly to assist my sister. I missed ya'll sooo much, really! You may not see me too often on our site unfortunately. We'll see. Wonder egg update: A friend cared for my seedlings while I was gone. Shirley, I cannot believe you have five or six leaves, and Mark, wow, what, four or five leaves? Comfrey- your plants are amazing. I just snapped a few pics to show everyone. I'm sort of embarrassed after hearing and seeing the others. I took these pics on macro setting! They appear MUCH LARGER than they are. Several "fell over" after misting but I pushed them back into soil. They seem to be doing fine. Wondering if I should water them from below now?

Yours look great Stephanie!!!! The stems look very sturdy and since they have their first trues leaves they will start growing out of control soon....I would suggest you transplant yours sometime soon into individual containers. Angelblossom & I both found that ours were root bound when we transplanted ours. And you may find that yours will be also. Kenny: I'm also proud of you Kenny for not giving up...You will get them to sprout yet....Need more seed? I still have a few left I could add to your envelope, since I haven't got it mailed yet.

My seedlings look just like Stephanie's. They are growing quite slowly this time around, but at least they are still hanging in there!

I'm so glad everyones are progressing so nice. Mine have a few white spots on the leafs, anyone know why? here's a pic. That's the biggest of them all. It has taken it quite a while to get there, but they are doing fine.

Thanks but no thanks Comfrey, I still have some seeds. I think I have enough for a few more tries as well , hopefully this is the last time I have to restart them

Cancolgirl, do you spray your plants? Maybe it's the hard water residue when the water evapourates? I'm pretty sure it isn't powdery mildew

Cancolgirl...I have no clue either about the spots, but I was thinking maybe it was water splashed on the leaf or some sort of ?bug/insect damage? I saw a ladybug crawling around on one of mine, but I don't think she can do any damage, so just left her alone. Good Luck Penny, I hope it works this time around...Just barely cover the seed and make sure the soil is not wet, but damp. Cover with plastic or place in a plastic bag and place in the warmest place in the house. I think heat and barely covering the seed is the key.

I just replanted mine[the four of them, one didn't make it ], but i had trouble standing them up.. they kept falling over... I think I got them OK now, though... I hope they make it! I think I underestimated the size of the roots... I may have removed some..
