Had a bad episode with neem oil. Mistake was mine. I applied it directly on the leaves thinking it'll safeguard against pests, but it was a poor decision, the older leaves survived but the young leaves got burnt and dried up.
She survived anyway and new growth has started towards end of this week.
This is the second time some bird is damaging my plant. Some pigeon has uprooted the seedling. I noticed it hours later in the night. Root was almost intact, it was just uprooted and left there. I have replanted her now. Will she recover?? How to deal with birds in outdoor grow?
@jyodinath You should construct some type of barrier that can cover your plant still let light thru but protect your baby from those pesky birds Anything can be used really a large plastic bottle with the bottom removed and placed over the plant or a wire cage with a clear plastic covering just use your imagination as for the health of the plant she should recover however you need to let that grow medium dry a bit between waterings so the roots can breath and to stop bugs get some diatomaceous earth and sprinkle it across the top of the pot the plant is in this will stop the litter buggers in their tracks I hope I was able to help answer this question Best of Luck
Ihr friesisches Entenmädchen scheint mir eine großartige Kämpferin zu sein 😀 ,
und sie scheinen ein Mensch mit viel Geduld zu sein,
ich verneige mich vor ihnen - sie machen das toll.

Hallo netter Entenliebhaber😀 ,
ich habe diese friesische Frohnatur mal auf dem Balkon angebaut und war sehr zufrieden. Besonders haben mir ihre Blätter gefallen. Meine neugierige Mutter hielt diese Ente für eine Art Hibiskus ( hahaha ) - da hatte sie noch nicht geblüht. Ihre Tarnung ist echt perfekt !
Beste Grüße

@SmallTownGrower,
Yes I topped her during week 10 and planted the top part (not really sure if she'll live), I guess that's why it went into flowering instead of growing individually.
@jyodinath Hi mate answered your question it's best to try to deter birds etc rather than harm them as much as they can be frustrating it is their environment and they don't deserve to be shot over a plant so Ive put in a couple of ideas for protecting the plant rather than terrorising the fauna 😂
Your plant is under attack by fungus.. the fungus is inside leaves you must use some strong antifungal to get rid of it or it will spread on ur whole plant..and water a bit less than u usually do.
