not sure if you can see the ruler or not in this one:


The stems on mine are getting stronger/thicker now, but you can't see from the pics too well..

The two larger ones are getting leaf number 8, and the two smaller ones are getting leaf number 7...



--Mark--

Looks good Mark.........nice and healthy!!!!!!

Take your time comfrey in sending the seeds. I certainly do understand. Hope your truck gets fixed soon.

Mark and Dixie Angel, your plants look great!

I have another question. Do you think I should transplant one plant per pot? I've got four or five in one 2 " original pot and 4 or so in another 2 " original pot. Not sure.

Yes one plant per pot. My truck will not be fixed until warmer weather, it needs a flywheel then when that is fixed it has to go to the shop for wiring problems So maybe by the summer is over It will be in good shape and running again.

okay after my transfer to 6" pots I took them outside and they just love it!!! They have been out for almost a week now!! This week is great weather predicted so they will remain out even at night!

DIANE!!! You have 6 feet pots???

But seriously... your plants look great!

It's time to pot a few of mine up bigger too, but certainly not time to put them outside, as we are getting a snowstorm tonight into tomorrow night!

I saw that and edited it Lynne!

Looking good Diane!

I have 4 plants in one pot the same size as yours... guess I should replant..

Diane...they look good and healthy! The sunny outdoors should be good for them. I'll post a picture of mine later tonight or Tuesday.

4 in one?? Oh the tangled web we weave I have two in one of mine I just got tired of transferring I started out with too many seeds We'll just have to see what happens

My first plant isn't going to make it, after being root bound and the leaves turned yellow and all dropped off...It looks really naked, but I am still watering it in hopes it will rejuvenate. The Middle plant is the one pictured and it now has 2 buds on it...I didn't take pictures of the smaller one which is now the same size as the one pictured and it also is getting a bud on it. The larger leaves are bigger then my hand.

oh wow Comfrey!!!!~~ The one that became root bound and is giving you trouble What size pot was/is it in?? 6"??? the same as the rest you have??

I can't wait until the leaves get as big as my hand!!!

The one that has lost all of its leaves it was in a 3" pot and became root bound and I transplanted into a 6" pot, but most of the lower leaves were yellow, that is how I knew that it needed to be repotted, but now it has lost all of its leaves, it has one green leaf that is small and a few very tiny leaves on the stem, if it hangs on then when it warms up here I'll take it outside and see if comes out of this or not...I kind of doubt that it will make it though. But hey I still have two completely healthy plants with buds on them, so I am happy with 2 plants!

diane and comfrey your w-eggs look great!

one of mine has bit the dust, the other two dont look so good either, i realy think i over waterd em, or had em to close to the light, i have two more seeds i planted and there coming up, so hopfuly my third times my charm!..hopfuly! ...fingers crossed!

You can do it Sybil!!! Crossing fingers here for ya!!!

comfrey, your plant is almost unbelieveable.

im hanging!

i always use a spoon or fork if the plant dont slide out from holding it upside down i;ll loosen around the edges then hold it upside down. use one hand to hold the base of the flower so it dont fall.

I finally got a picture of my six plants!!!!!



The one with Willy is 5+" tall from base of plant to tip of tallest leaf.

The larger plant in the big pot is 7"

Very cool Shirley!

I moved my plants a litel cloer to the plant light a few days ago, and since then they've been growing lots faster

O WOW Shirley!!! Good JOB!!!

Good looking plants Shirley!!!

My third plant to sprout, the smallest one is now starting to drop leaves and some are curling up, what ever is happening doesn't look good for it. The one I posted a picture of the bud is getting bigger and almost ready to open. Here's a closer look at the progress of the flower bud & notice the little thorn things on the stems:



Another view:

Ohhhhhhh Coooool!!!!

Amazing to see the process! It's so great to see the progress of the growth. Makes me want to even try and grow some of these babies! =]
