Day 13 - New Leaves and a Survivor

Disclaimer: picture heavy post

I'm in shock. I honestly didn't think they'd grow this fast. But my little seedlings are growing like weeds.

Here's a photo of one of the quicker growers. What's funny, is in the beginning, it wasn't as fast, but it just took off. And look, it has it's real leaves.



And below is the PinkerBlue. Remember I was telling you how it was the singleton that germinated but looked like it was dying? Well, I took a close look at it and it hadn't fully shed it's shell. So, I very gently, pulled off the rest and it started opening up and growing. I'm not sure if the dark spots is rot, or if it's from the shell being on it too long. All I know and care about is that it's growing!!! 




This is my happy growing container. Full of germinating plumies. 


This is the my non-growing container. I have one very slow germinating plumie but as you can see, nothing else is going on. :( Boo. I'm going to transfer the singleton in this group over to the other container. Hopefully it'll grow some more. I would put the rest in it, but it won't fit. Boo again!





Below on the right is a side view, so you can see how tall they're getting. And on the left is my set-up with my current adult tree. The light is so far away now, but the seedlings still seem very very happy. Maybe next year, they'll be happy like my adult tree.
