so i was adding some more bayer to my frosty pink in a container. I scrathed out a little hole and disturbed some roots. I didnt think much of it. This brug is pretty large to. I watered pretty good. Then the one day I couldnt get out to water also. well the next day I had a huge pile of leaves and kinda naked brug. It still seems healthy though, the new growth is still there.

would this be because the soil is to dry or th e distubing of roots?

The roots on my brugs were growing out of the soil. Perhaps we didn't plant deeply enough (probably). So dbf dug out around them and added more soil and put a border around each of them. They never looked back. I rather think it's an issue of water rather than root disturbance, but that's just a guess. If the little leaves are still there then just water and feed.

yeah thats what im going to do. I am suprised it still had dropped a bunch more today. I think I should trim it to, its just gigantic for my little yard.

Yes..it happened to me like that when I was useing it inside... so I had a bunch left over spread it out over maybe 25 plants.. and on two of them..the next day..had their center leaves lookeing like someone had poured boiling water over them... like steamed spinich.. all the planters seemed to be moist ..guess not enough..
