My baby Zucchini plant is dying - buds dying BEFORE opening
Comments (5)Umm, if those pictures show the new larger pot, the plant will continue to be in trouble. Much too small afor a plant that can easily become 4 feet across. It's early enough in the season that you might consider seeding new plants, fertilizing regularly as soon as the 2nd set of leaves develop. And it would likely be helpful to become acquainted with your county's Extension Service office which will be able to direct you to local gardening information.

Comments (1)The Husband Guy says that it sounds like too much fertilizer. however, he also said that 3-4 hours of sun is not enough. If it got very hot where you are, a container pot could dry out very quickly. At any rate, I suspect that transplanting it did more harm than good. Sorry, but I think you need to forget this one and start over. He says that where you are, in South Florida, you would not have to worry about the last freeze date and could plant much earlier than March....See Moreis my mint dying?! please help!
Comments (2)Looks like definate Mint Rust.... They only thing I can say to do would be to cut everything of to the base of the plant to get rid of any infected leaves (which looks like the entire plant)and any that have fallen on the soil. remove an " or so of potting soil and replenish. The mint will come back. I can't tell what "mint" you have but it probably won't die outdoors, just go dormant until spring. Vera...See MoreLavender and Mint (also Rosemary) keep dying. Help! ;-;
Comments (9)Hi Chervil2, The vendor told me to water it until it's back to the fresh state. This plants also very uncommon in the town I stayed and had to imported from larger town from the next province so I couldn't get it locally (I tried go around and ask but all I get is Rosemary that has been shipped from another province too and it's now has died despite the facts that it was fresh at the beginning of my purchases). Hi Floral_UK, I was told to wait for 14 days to see if the plants died completely or not and my money will be transferred back. I'm situated south of the equator in a small town near the mountain. It's mildly cool here (gets hot at 13:00) and the reason I keep it inside is because it's raining all day lately and I read that lavender is a drought-preferring plant. I'm in Plant Hardiness Zone 13....See MoreSW (Sydney, USDA 10b)
