Default Ok, another try with PrimeAgra


I thought I'd have another try with my PA.
Last time, my chids (catts) turned soooo yellow, and died. I hope and pray that won't be happening this time. I'm following the instructions on watering, so hopefully, all works out!
I potted about 15 or so in PA. From very large Catts & Phals, and smaller ones too.
Any hints and idears on how to keep that yucky yellow death away??

The key is the timing of repotting. Read this:

Jkelee they all look so good. I really like the pots you have them in where did you get them? Where the chids putting out new roots when you repotted? You could try Thrive or some kind of root stimulant. I sure would hate to see all those babies turn yellow.

I am sure repotting them will set then back a bit but surely they all won't die....

Good Luck with your project. Keep us informed on how they are doing.

What kind of drainage do your pots have?

Did you wait until they started producing new roots?

Cheers.

Sheridan, thanks. And I got them from my local grocery Deli.

Joann, They have 2 holes at the bottom 1-1.5" up. Same as pro pots.

Jim, I just put them in the PrimeAgra just a couple of weekends ago. I can't say that they had new roots.

I checked again today, and MORE yellowing coming

Gosh Jkelee I hope they don't all go south on you....
Did you rinse and soak the PrimeAgra? I didn't do anything special with mine and they just took off. I sure hope things work out.

Yes Sheridan, I did soak them, as FirstRays directions said to do so.
I just don't understand the yellowing

are they in active growth/are the root tips just starting to elongate??? That's what Ray says needs to be happening. I'm about to try S/H and I REALLY don't want to lose my plants.
