I know they don't like being watered at night or "having their feet wet" at night. Watering in the morning seems to be what they prefer. Also watering less, more often works well for me and mine. I think you have a terrific display of violets. Such pretty little plants.Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08661507273018425876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37154898.post-20559591073661140052015-06-10T16:26:16.972-05:002015-06-10T16:26:16.972-05:00How pretty, I have to hang all of my pots because ...How pretty, I have to hang all of my pots because my cats eat them.Missy Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05209549470700130606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37154898.post-44762844369723613942015-06-10T13:23:12.101-05:002015-06-10T13:23:12.101-05:00You have some beautiful violets, Sarah.
My underst...You have some beautiful violets, Sarah.<br />My understanding is that when they have been repotted they go into a state of shock--or something akin to it--for a while as they re-establish themselves. Completely normal. I'm no expert, but that is what I have gathered from my reading. After repotting I place the plant in a large ziploc bag, which I keep closed for a couple of weeks. Then I open the zipper and leave it that way for a couple more weeks. It makes a gradual transition that eases the "shock" of transplanting a little bit.<br /><br />I have 12 potted violets and a leaf clippings starter dome that is usually full of new starts.Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.com
