Thanks soo much GreenQueen, it’s super comforting to hear that haha

 

Most of the leaves are still very green, with just some burnt tips or centre parts, so I’ll keep them till they go yellow haha

 

I can’t wait to see them in a couple weeks too, I have a good feeling they will do well in this new soil and new pots

 

Cheers

BB

They look better already! What did you end up using for soil?

 

I agree with everyone else that most soil from bunnings is garbage but I have found that you can construct good soil from bunnings ingredients.

 

I get the blocks of coco coir without fertilizer or anything added as others mentioned then mix in a small bag of dynamic lifter and 5L bags each of:

1. Perlite

2. Vermiculite

3. Peat moss

4. Propagating sand

(They are usually together at bunnings)

Costs about $60

 

This then gets mixed with my local heavy clay soil and homemade compost and covered in sugarcane mulch. Water thoroughly and leave for 6weeks before planting anything in it ...

 

I guess that's not much use for you in this situation but I just felt like sharing my cheapo bunnings soil mix :-)

 

Hope your plants continue to recover and no bugs return.

Thanks for that buddy! I might try that mix out next year!!

 

I used osmocote premium soil and perlite to air rate it a bit.

 

Yeah I’m Happy with how they look at the moment. They are currently getting belted with some serious rain too, so I hope that will help revitalize them as well

Fingers crossed for you, hope the repotting fixes your bug problem, you could maybe look at getting some neem meal from Dr greenthumb or organic gardening solutions and make a foliar spray and maybe a light top dress this will help with bug problems. Hope all mends well with them.

Cheers

The girls are doing fantastic! I couldn’t have asked for a better recovery. All the new shoots have grown back, but twice as much! It’s fantastic. I’ll upload some photos today

 

Cheers for checking in missrachael

alright everyone here is some updated photos of the two girls as of today. I’m soo happy with their recovery, they have bounced back incredibly. Thank you to everyone who helped and gave advice, you’re all the absolute best.

 

 

Plant one:

 

 

Plant two:

 

 

I still have a few leaves to remove that have been eaten or burnt from the chemicals, but I figured they are okay to stay on a little longer till the plant really fully recovers. Thoughts?

 

Cheers

BB
