Dividing trouble!

19 years ago

Someone gave me an African Violet, and it was a nice fuzzy little green guy, but it had two crowns of equal size. I figured it would never bloom like this, so I took it out, removed the excess soil around the roots, divided crown left and crown right from each other, and potted each in some organic AV mix. Two weeks later, they are alive, but they look a little sad, and a couple of the lower leaves of each one have died. They look kind of wilty, even though they have adequate water. Are they just in shock? If I have given them a death sentence, I would like to know and do something about it before it is too late.

Should I fertilize? Give them more light? Or less light? I'm pretty sure I didn't overwater, as the soil is perfectly damp, but maybe they need a bit extra or some such.
