Adenium Seedlings

The seedlings were growing faster than the first week, I notice the saran wrap was starting to drip onto the first set of leaves of some of the seedlings so I  took it off. It caused a bit of damage on the leaves when I got back home from work, I suspect water damage.


 Top right seedling got water damaged


Can see left plant the leaf got water damaged as well

On the first picture, I've decided to save one of the seed that seem to be going through a tough time to sprout, taking off the seed capsule earlier than suppose to when I saw a bit of it's root sprouting. I believe it was going to rot, seeing mold growing on the edge.






As for the pictures above it's a little unfortunate. They are still alive however. Just that someone who was mowing the backyard I guess accidentally knocked off the plastic cover I had over it and tried to put it back on, but didn't put it correctly that it fell in. It did knock over a few seedlings, scratched one of them, bended one of them, deformed one of them and one of them lost the leaf. But luckily it's been three and it seems to be pretty sturdy to had survived this far. So ever since then, I just stopped putting them outside and keep them under grow light 24/7 which I think I Should stop because of these annoying moss growing on the soil.



May 25, 2014 Their second set of leaves has finally been installed and third set will be coming out soon.
On the left, you see a seedling I've found sprouting late, I apparently took off the capsule off it too early and so the leaves seem to be fused together.


The seedlings are growing pretty well, I know it's been a while since I've posted anything. There's times were I'll look at the seedlings and the second set of leaves seem to had gone through a dramatic growth sprout. Updates will come soon.. been pretty busy with work and all. These are just pictures on the last week of May. Next post, hopefully by then, I'll be transplanting these little guys.
