lehua13 given your description I think we can rule out heat stress. As far as water stress goes a plant can be stressed by either to much or too little water. The soil should be slightly damp but not soaking wet. Here are a couple of things that may help..... You have leaf miners. If there are not to many of them then just pluck off the affected leaves. The ones with squiggly lines. Put them in a zip lock bag and dispose of them. Another alternative is pesticides. If you prefer organic you can try 1 table spoon of Neem Oil per Gallon of water. Add a few drops of soap to the mixture for a wetting agent. Spray the whole plant along with the tops and bottoms of the leaves. Repeat every 4-6 days as needed. The time to spray would be in the late afternoon. If you do not have a preference for organic pesticides there are better none organic alternatives. If the container is not protected from the sun in some way it should be. Think about how hot a bottle of water gets sitting in the sun. Way to hot for plants, right? If the reservoir does not have a hole in the side to let excess water out then the proper thing to do its to drill one. Stop flushing. Its stressful to the plant. Its something thats done as a last resort to compensate for a massive over fertilization. Its meant to get something out of the soil. Not to put fertilizers in it. Remove any dead leaves. They are a perfect place for molds and fungus to start growing and thats a bad thing.

No, I'm afraid I'm the last. Saw that word "engagement" on conversations and didn't have time to go looking for this thread till now. I go away for a few days and people win contests and get engaged and I miss all the excitement. So happy for you. It has been great following your romance from your hesitation about the 1st date to such an awesome proposal. I think a year is perfect. Not everyone needs the 20 years Norm and I took to tie the knot. (On the other hand there's a lot to be said for no surprises!) Wishing you both a wonderful year of romance leading up to the virtual wedding of the century!

Sorry you missed out on the auction. Better luck next time. My daughter has used some GW wedding dresses for various projects. She has removed some nice beaded pieces and has put them on other clothing, made a beaded cumberbund, a headband and put some on purses. She even dyed some and the material in the beads must have been just right because it took the dye and was very pretty. She also used the satin, beads and lace from a GW wedding dress to make a ring bearer's pillows for a couple of her friends. Wish I had pics to share. (Her daughters...9 and 11...love putting on the dresses and swishing around the house in them before Mom cuts them up.)

That sounds wonderful to me. I like simple weddings. Mine was, outside in my parents backyard, the whole thing. My aunt made my dress, my great uncle performed the ceremony. We played croquet and badmitton at the reception. The food was simple like this one posted. One maid of honor, one best man (corresponding genders LOL). Years later that maid of honor got married, and we traded places. Her wedding was also simple, it was fantastic. At a state park, the ceremony in a clearing, reception and lunch in the lodge next to the clearning. It was a beautiful day in October. Throughout the ceremony leaves of every fall color and shape were falling, nature's perfect touch. It was beautiful! She was barefoot, too! She said she looked for shoes, but didn't find anything she liked and comfortable, too, briefly considered her hiking boots, but decided barefoot would be best. LOL. That was 7 years ago. This month, her husband is on a climbing expidition to Mt. McKinley/Denali in Alaska!
