When We have wind it is bad here. It was very calm when I set the small green house out to sun, Went out back to move a gang box of tools. Went back out frnt. and a burst of wind knocked it over. Thank the Lord it was a three tray stack. I didn't want to put them in the large green house yet because I didn't want to run a heater in it at nite. Going to finnish the salvage today and see what got hit the most. I can move them now. As You can see by My post yesterday I was upset. Now to re organize My grow and run with it. The grow will help Me at this stage due to the time of the replacement trays being ready after I plant the first trays out. Our season here is very long so that is a plus. LOL I didn't take a pic. to show. It was to bad to show any one. Small over look that won't happen again on My part. I worked on the trays till 2:30 this morning and have a ways to go today. So far I have alot of plants that are now give aways due to I do not know the strain now. I won't mix them - so now they are Yard ornaments for some one down the road. I however will post the damage report when I am finnished today. Maybe My mistake will be some ones gain.

I know how you feel Mad, mine keep dieing and dieing and dieing.
Lost at least half of them. I am going to transplant the big ones into new potting soil this weekend.
Freaking sucks big time.

DITO; Don't use vinegar around them. If anything use a lite solution of peroxide. Try fresh potting soil. It may have the problem fixed. I have an old school mix I use that My Gramps used back in the day that I can not use this Year because I am doing a log for FAST2GROW. It works great. Dissolve one teaspoon each of Epsom salts, Salpetre, and Baking powder (not soda) along with 1/4 teaspoon houshold ammonia in a gallon of water then shake it up. Spray them when they start up and water them every six weeks with it. grgfinney can direct You to the salpetre if You cant find it. You have to mix all the ingr. to work.
