Some of them are very small and not showing much activity but I'm learning to be patience. lol

I wish I had more space so I would buy more flasks, but oh, well... space is always the challenge in a city where the cost of living space is too much.
Truer words were never spoken!

Oh, well. I think I'll just let them grow for a while this way. No other options for now.

I put about half of all the seedlings in sphag and the other half in a mix of sphag and bark.
Most of them are pushing new leaf, so I take that as a good sign for now.
Yes, a VERY good sign! Re the separation, it requires a deft but light touch re the gentle teasing apart of the roots. I think good surgeons have this capacity.

And, congrats!
