Day 14

Well its been 2 weeks. I haven't watered for a week due to the soil being moist and the pot being heavy but even with the moister in the soil she looks really thirsty. Even all new growth is drooping. But I am seeing lots of growth. More wide then tall. Bass of stalk has gotten a bit thicker and I can see root growth all the way to the bottom of the pot at drain holes. I've added a fan to the mix to help move air and I've added bout 3 dozen holes all around the pot to help with air flow. I did this very carefully with my soldering iron. Going to water today just around stalk to see what happens. Got fresh pic's could use some input.

Hey! Looks like the will to survive supports the theory of "survival of the fittest" Gets kinda nerve racking sometimes, I know. If I had waited, might not have endured Mg def. early on by over watering to fix a over watering induced problem. GOOD JOB she looks great and has a healthy root system ready to fight! ENJOY

Day 4

Chose not to water last night and wont for a day or two there's plenty of water seeping through the bottom of the pot. She looks
good for day 4 I think you can see the tips of leaf 3 and 4 have already sprouted and have developed several segments. View attachment 787263 View attachment 787264 View attachment 787265

good call on the no water. They will tell you when to water.

do you have a fan blowing on your girls. They need a good shaking.

Ya I got a box fan I added on the 2 week mark yesterday in front of the closet to blow cold air from the ac in my bedroom and a towel hang so that cold air comes in the bottom and hot flows out the top. Fan is set to med.

looking good man. MacGyver'ing the heck out of it

experience will get you sorted with watering, just a learning curve atm and it'll prob be a good idea to rotate the plant a few times a day to ensure even air flow on it....an oscillating fan would be better, but not required.
