Last Ditch Effort!
PLEASE take a look at my last 3 pics titled LAST DITCH EFFORT! #1-3 and tell me is there any hope left? What i did was took it out of the soil cut-off any soft tissue/rot and rinsed the roots with luke warm water! I shall wait for a few answers before i try too re-pot it! Would a root hormone or anything help-i shall at least let it dry out a lil'! This is (or was) a Praying Hands!
Thanks-a-lot Robby |

Re: Last Ditch Effort!
Let it dry out a few days, then stick it in some peat moss until spring. Peat moss is naturally fungus resistant. Store there until you can plant it this spring.

Re: Last Ditch Effort!
Pot it up, keep it very warm, do not over water, and hope for pups. It is NEVER over till there is just a hole in the soil and nothing else.

Re: Last Ditch Effort!
Do they still feel solid or do they give when you press on them? and give them a sniff. They look pretty bad. if they don't pass either one of those above tests, they're history. If they feel solid and very firm and they don't stink, then pot them back up and put them on a heat mat and see if they get happy again.
