Thanks so much Michele. So informative, you are.
I'm putting all this in my notes.
I have looked for Pro-mix, but have not found it here. Have been
using Miracle Grow potting soil, which I don't like all that much
for seeds. Maybe Lowes or Home Depot can order something
else for me. Evidently, not much demand for seed starting soil
locally. I don't even see many veggie gardens here.
I believe the maggots were the problem with my Hog Heaven
too. The plant is renewing itself now. It is tiny, but a nice dark
healthy green.
Just love that yellow flower!!!
