I wonder what other ingredients are in the good potting mix, they often contain wetting agents and synthetic fertilisers, this might be giving your seedlings a boost too. Looks like it works anyway!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12874273438983052621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7957074720324686869.post-18173851212303592152012-10-09T06:24:06.881+10:002012-10-09T06:24:06.881+10:00As a pair of Tassie penniless horticulture student...As a pair of Tassie penniless horticulture student hippies with 2 dogs we tend to collect LOTS of plants...we used to keep our plants inside an enclosure around the house to protect them from the possums, wallabies, rabbits, and anything else hell bent on scarfing the lot BUT our younger dog Earl has decided that plants = fun and has been pruning off our precious babies UNDER the graft! The possums and wallabies do less damage so our potted babies are now outside the enclosure and doing just fine. Looks like we might have more grafting to do though...BAD EARL!...sigh...narf7noreply@blogger.com
