Regarding watering the cycads: I've purchased a water/light/pH meter and it shows the soil is moist, not yet to the lower limit. I haven't watered them for 2 weeks today. Should I wait a few more days? I don't want them to get thirsty in their new pots but I don't want them to have wet feet either. What is your advice?
Also, I haven't fertilized them yet, waiting for them to get fully acclimatized to their new home. Maybe I should feed them this coming weekend? Would fish emulsion be better than Osmocote? Both are grower's suggestions but I wonder if using both is too much for them.

Thank you in advance for any opinion. Smiling
If at first you don't succeed, call it version 1.0
Keep smiling, it makes people wonder what you've been up to.
My "bunnies" are in fact Guinea pigs. 5 of them so far.
