Nice to see you posting again Wispy. I like the caudex of plant 1, looks very much like one I lost several years ago!

Coming along well!

Thanks Gill! Finally found the time to really check on them. Good to be back and see everyone's Adeniums doing so well.

Almost a month, only one did not make it. Can't wait to see them bloom next summer.

Kerry, just a word of friendly advise if I may.....your little ones are growing, yes, but they're stretching for the light, that's why their growth is so fast as you've noticed. They're sitting far too low down in the pot so light isn't reaching them, hence the drawn out look or 'etiolation'.

Remedy....if that's just a regular plastic pot, sacrifice if by cutting the top down so only 1cm remains above the soil line, then give the little darlings some extra daylight, as much as possible. If it's a treasured pot, carefully remove the soil wth the plants still in it, place outstretched hand over soil and invert the pot carefully, disturbing the plants as least as possible, put extra mix in bottom of pot and place them back in again.

Either method will help them fatten up in time.

I agree with Gill that I think they need more light. Good advice. That or they are getting too much nitrogen fertilizer but it's more likely a light issue. They'll fatten up better if they are getting plenty of sun but ease them into it a little at a time, not a sudden big change that may burn them with too much full intense sun all at once.

Thanks Gill Someone else told me the same on facebook!

I'm going to start giving them more sunlight by putting them outdoors in the day time and in at night as there still in the heated propagator luckily the tempratures are currently in the 20c as you know

Ive never had much luck growing anything from a seed these are completely new to me

There in a premium compost wasnt sure what was a suitable mix for them but im happy they have grown anyway
