Re: Wilted leaves
I bet the problem is my soil is too wet, I took a sample and you could
squeeze water out of it. My moisture meter was pegged. The other plant is
now wilting. I took them out and put them in other upside down 1 gallon pots
with a good potting soil. I guess I'll see if they survive. I guess I really
need to finish preparing my patch so they can go out there.
