It is pouring rain out today. But I did check yesterday. Still no offsets. Sad

hmmm Lynn, seems like your magic potion wasn't strong enough!! I think Clint said that may be the case, so I'm assuming he's sending you more?
I'm asking because I may try and get some, and maybe I could bring a little with me when we come there?? Thumbs up

Not sure what the problem is Greg. Towards the end of this week we get sunny weather again, so I will give it another try with the solution I have. Thumbs up

Oh good Lynn! We were all so hopeful, kind of a let down to not get anything! Meanwhile most of my semps look like there putting out chicks! Even without configure! I tip my hat to you.

Lynn I so hope this works for you. Has this particular plant never produced babies for you?

In three years I have only got 2 offsets. That little one is one of them. Sad

Thank you Clint. I will wait to spray it. I also wonder if it is one that doesn't want to produce until the weather gets warmer? I still have many of the smooth leaved semps that haven't started producing offsets yet.

Thumbs down I hope you get your babies soon Lynn. None of my smooth leaved semps has babies yet, just the arachs. But they are producing enough to make up for everyone lol!

A few of my smooth leaved ones are starting to produce, but many haven't started yet.

Can i ask what the difference is between Lynn's weather & Clint's weather temp's & amount of sunshine?? Less see what the difference in those are for the experiment,since that makes such a big difference.How water proof is this stuff?

Lynn, it seems you are saying it's raining often and i haven't been on that much.

Good morning Jelinda.
I think Clint's growing season is longer than mine.
We are very wet during winter and spring.
Very dry during summer and fall.
We have low humidity in summer, I think Clint has high humidity in summer.
I also think his sun is more intense than ours?

Announcement to make. As of yesterday my Gruenrand has offsets. Just starting, so difficult to say how many.
The puzzling part is that both the treated and untreated rosettes are showing offset production. The test will be in which one produces the most offset. Thumbs up

I'll take photo tomorrow and see how many offsets I can see.
