Josh. It doesn't look like insect damage to me. Although that could have been the start of it. I hadn't thought it was in a pot. (none visible) . Since I grow almost nothing in pots except for starting things out to ease some transitions, I hand't considered that as a factor. I think it got too dry some days, also. Get bigger deeper pots, if you're going to grow stuff in pots. It's really hard to control moisture and other factors even though some aspects are easier to control (if you've got the time) Loss of attention though, can wipe stuff out pretty fast. When I grow in pots, I water them every day, or use some clayey loam to slow drainage and keep more moisture in. Much depends on the plant and how many I've killed before. . ----- Original Message ----- From: "Josh Young" <joshy46013@yahoo.com> To: "Pacific Bulb Society" <pbs@lists.ibiblio.org> Sent: Sunday, August 29, 2010 12:31 PM Subject: Re: [pbs] Griffinia Leaves, What's Going On? > Nhu & Adam, > > I got this plant from New York, our humidity has been pretty high this > summer around here, usually between 60-75 percent.
