Ok, so Doug got me to thinking about the more room thing with how big his hoya seedlings are getting already.......

So I decided to rat on myself with another little experiment I had been playing with. When I originally potted up the first seedlings I had done the ones in the single cups and in the hydro but I also had done one big communal pot as I had read about "growing vibes" that little plants send out and how they will grow better together! :0) I felt a little silly doing this (thus didn't share the pictures) but hey I had a lot of seedlings so why not.....well I can tell you that the ones in the big pot have done better than the ones I potted up in the little cups.

The seedlings that I took out of the cups had some nice roots but nothing like the ones took out of the bigger communal pot....and yes I have pictures...here is the big pot I did on the 30th of August. It is in this bowl as I had another bowl on the top for a little while. I did a layer of the clay pellets and then perlite and then a light hoya mix...
