Re: First Mistake with sporeling

Perhaps a place to start would be looking at the conditions in the 
little hot house. Did it get too warm by the sun falling on it. Did the 
babies get left out too long in transplantation or did the water you 
used to water them in have some contaminent that might have hit them too 
hard. Did you put fertilizer in the soil or the water because it may 
have been too much for the babies and of course, as has been said, a 
thousand other things...... too much light, too little light, too much 
water, too dry, .... etc.

When all else fails, try again............. Betsy
