Start of week two ! I decided to give 2 ducks a new outdoor home, the 5 left will be gifts for friends.
I filled AirPots with 20 liter of BioBizz lite mix each. For nutrition, I gave them the classic BioTabs strategy.
06/08/2020 -day 10- I noticed that the new leafs on #1 seem to hang a little, maybe it’s transplanting shock. Also they did not grow much in their new environment. Will keep an eye on it...
06/12/2020 -day 14- at the end of week two, duck #1 developed some kind of yellowish marks on the leaf edges... also the leafs are in a weird shape. Duck #2 seems healthy
One thing I learned regarding to next time: Don´t use these little organic pots. In my case the roots got so attached to them, that I had some root loss while repotting...
Hopefully they will like their new home !
Keep in Touch !
Cheers

Does anyone know what these yellowish marks on the leaf edges on duck #1 are ? At day 14 it´s very present. Also the leafs are a bit out of form in comparison with her sisters.
I only gave tap water and BioTabs, night temperatures between 8-10 C, day temperatures 18-23 C
On day 36 I discovered some strange white stuff on top of the soil in only one pot. Looks like mold and the plant seems not to be infected. Two days ago I gave both of the BioTabs Bactrex and Molasses as scheduled. Does anyone had this issue before ?
Try spraying it with a hydrogen peroxide solution( I use a tablespoon of the drugstore type in a gallon of water), then back off on watering. Let soil dry out pretty well. If the h2o2 doesn't get it, There is a product called Serenade that is an anti-fungal. I haven't had to use it, but it was recommended by my hydro store.
Also. if you haven't already, you may want to add some perlite to your soil next time to help aerate and drain soil.
Good Luck🤟😜
@Growingkitten,thanks 🙂 but in comparison with other diaries, they seem very small. Next time I will try to raise them in their final pots without repotting
