You two think a lot alike! I wish I had as many good thoughts... I have no problem getting roots and even true leaves. It's about 3 weeks after true leaves that I begin to lose them. They begin growing in paper cups, and I got brave today. I ripped open the cup of one that looked like it was about to fail. Yep, all of the dirt around it was quite damp, and as you can see in the pix, it was about to die. I think I'm overwatering by spritzing. I think I'll take them all outside in the heat (but the shade) to let them get dryer before spritzing them again. How in the heck one can tell when they need a spritz is beyond me! I of course can't see beyond the surface, but it appearing dry isn't enough info! It's not a hardening off issue, though.
Some leaf but almost no root.
