Is that why they do this? To ship the plants better!?! I agree dp... I water it slowly from the top, but if I'm not careful it all runs down the rocks. Well I can say that soaking the rocks only helped about 20%. I have to say that if I didn't have the input I'm getting from all you wonderful people, I probably would have just repotted it and been disgusted. I think since the soils saturated and the glue is weak I'll try to break the rocks off... thank you much grow girl... This seems the best way to eliminate these rocks with minimal strain on my plant. I will let you know. Again though, I can't believe they would do this just for shipping purposes!! I thought I'd post a pic of my entertainment center (I have over 100 house plants that all do fabulous) Thank you lovely people!!
