Oh no, Crispy Boy 🍂

Question

@PlantyPlanter @sarah10orio update on Solomon Seal Rhizome

Since I ordered a new one, I’m okay with looking at this one now! Can I save him? The dark part was mushy last night and the soil was between damp and somewhat dry. I believe it’s rotting but the rest of it is healthy! What do I do 🤞🏽✨

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

I would cut off the rotting part and plant it

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

The rest of it looks healthy but maybe with the mushy part cut off it can air out

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

Looks like Crispy boy is sprouting another Solomon seal!

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@kscape yes

@sarah10orio · Answer

Chop it!

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

How is crispy boy looking now? Can you name the soggy one Soggy Boy?

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@sarahsalith do you live near a pond?

@sarah10orio · Answer

@PlantyPlanter yes.

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@sarahsalith is there sand around it?

@sarah10orio · Answer

@PlantyPlanter no sand- mainly mud.

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@sarahsalith can you take a pic? I have an idea

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@sarahsalith it’s on your property right?

@sarah10orio · Answer

Dang, @PlantyPlanter - Look at that big, ole bird!

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@sarahsalith wow! First off I have to say, your animals look very happy and I’m very jealous! Second, could you put a Solomon seal on the bank of the pond? I’m doing some #ScienceWithGreg

@sarah10orio · Answer

@PlantyPlanter yes- it's on our property.  There's a guy digging another one in the front (so I don't have to cut so much grass) but it won't be finished for a few months.

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@sarahsalith another pond????

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@sarahsalith so you can put a Solomon seal at the bank of the pond? Don’t put it right at the water, maybe like less than/ a foot away from water, which ever you think makes more sense

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@sarahsalith which Solomon seal are you gonna take? Variegated or normal?

@PlantyPlanter · Answer

@kscape how are things going with crispy boy?

@sarah10orio · Answer

@PlantyPlanter I'll probably wait until the from lake is finished because it'll have more shade. There isn't much shade at all in the back ... except for the swampy area where the ducks play. Also, duck love to eat leafy plants and I would hate to lose the Solomon's Seal to the quackers!

I have variegated from Amazon and variegated from @ABCD. I also have the rhizomes from Etsy and I'm hoping they pull through.
