Bev, are you sure that some of the rosettes haven't bloomed? Just a thought.

I have noticed that any big rosettes that have been eaten thru in its main stem have usually started to put out tiny white roots such that I dry them for a day or so and then re-plant them into the ground.

I find that I have to do the "yank" test every once in a while to see if any big rosette has been "violated"... Crying

In the meantime, I have used Sluggo for now and thought about Diatomaecous Earth (non and food quality) but can't get over the danger in inhalation aspect of its use. I like to hover close over my semps and don't like the idea that I may be breathing in unsafe minute particles... Angry
