I watered them with that alfalfa tea with molasses and yeast. Oh what a mess. Some wilted within 24 hours. Others waited till I watered again. Then I figured it out that the soil had stopped draining. Like the alfalfa had clogged up the air spaces. The water would stay on top of the pot. A mold covered the top of the pots.

This is a sang and it is all wilted on top. The dirt is still soaking wet and I have not watered it since Saturday. It is in a 4 inch pot with a 3 foot plant in it. Usually it needs otbe watered every day.
