These have grown massive. This clump is three plants I grew from seed last year!

@lovemygarden65 I love it! And it seems to be impossible to kill and very slug resistant. Win win win!

So pleased they have visibly grown now so they've obviously survived their bout of white fungus! Now to rescue my verbena seeds (which have the fungus on them; it must have been in my coir ☹️) #seedlings #poppy

Hi! Sprinkle some cinnamon on the top of each pot, it kills the bacteria 😃

@hayleyaj thanks, I read about this online but I wasn't sure if it would harm my seedlings. I will do that on the verbena seeds :)

No it won't, it helps prevent "damping off" 😃

Grow, my pretties, GROW! They had some white fungus (damping off?) growing on them so I carefully took them out and put them in a brand new medium, and they're growing! Fingers crossed. #seeds #seedlings #poppy #someonecastagrowingspell

That must have been a delicate operation. I love ornamental poppies

I use a pencil and a teaspoon Gaby, not the one I stir my tea with incidentally. 😂😂😂 @atomica
