On my way out. We have partially cloudy skies, but no rain. Going to spray Gruenrand. Let the experiment begin, camera in hand. Blinking

Wasn't this one you were going to spray?? If it has a lot of chicks, it would be fun to have one or two?

Oh, do you mean my avatar photo? It is S. 'Pacific Blue Ice'. And yes, you all can get a pick of the litter. And it makes big litters. Big Grin Add it to your lists.
Sorry, most of the photo is kind of blurry. *Blush*

Mary Ann cuttings not being sprayed. 3/15/2013 Sprayed plant is the one second from the right. All pots will remain in the same area together.

I sprayed the puniest cutting. Thought that would really show what the Configure can do?

If the Configure works and Gruenrand has lots of little Gruenrands, I would be happy to share. Just be aware that the babies may not produce for you, and if they do it may only be maybe 2 offsets per year. Sad

My list is beginning to worry me. What is that old saying about my eyes are bigger than my patio. Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing

It will be fun to watch the progress of the plants after their enhancement/fertility drugs. nodding

I'm excited too!! Marilyn, I'm totally experiencing this right now!! Eyes are bigger than my space, but oh well! I've had two different people ask me "what are you going to do with all these?" when I've showed them my semp bed..."Do with?" I don't understand!! (I think they know that these guys send out lots of babies!) Hurray!

Great Pic's Lynn! This must be a really interesting project for you. Im very curious as to what happens. What exactly is in the spray that stimulates the growth of offsets?

Keep us posted!

Jackie, that would be a question for Clint. He sent me some, I know nothing about what the active ingredients are. I guess I should check into that. *Blush*

Good morning Chris. I took Alieve last night before going to bed. Pain is gone, and so is sleep. Sad Not sure what is in it that won't let me sleep? Caffeine?
I did finally get some sleep. Ready to go play outside in the sunshine. Two days in a row. Hurray!
