2007-08-20 21:33:53 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: I think the only way for that one is to keep it small
2007-08-20 21:34:10 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: That looks like it might look a lot like Aly's Key Lime Pie

2007-08-20 21:36:09 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: I now has just 1/2 # sticking out of the ground
2007-08-20 21:36:10 [Message] Jake -> VioletReflections: did it bloom any?
2007-08-20 21:36:20 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: No and I gave it new soil and everything

2007-08-20 21:36:46 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: I let some of my Amaryllis bloom for christmas and now no bloom is that normal
2007-08-20 21:37:06 [Message] Jake -> VioletReflections: they only bloom once a year as far as I know
2007-08-20 21:37:19 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Usually this one will bloom after it gets a couple of leaves
2007-08-20 21:37:33 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: I know you are suppose to let them stay dormant until about SEpt
2007-08-20 21:37:42 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: OK Won't do that again I rather have them bloom in the garden
2007-08-20 21:37:47 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: But this one is trying to send up a leaf and I have quit watering it
2007-08-20 21:38:07 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Put it in the dark?
2007-08-20 21:38:16 [Message] Jake -> VioletReflections: if it was me, I'd let it do its thing
2007-08-20 21:38:25 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: keep watering it?
2007-08-20 21:38:34 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: I leave them in the garden and they bloom in spring
2007-08-20 21:38:51 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Really?  I have never seen any in anyones yards around here
2007-08-20 21:39:09 [Message] Jake -> VioletReflections: yes, my guess is that it's own it's own schedule and if it doesn't get sun and water when it wants it, it'll die
2007-08-20 21:39:17 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: I have maybe 6 in the garden
2007-08-20 21:39:22 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: hmmm

2007-08-20 21:46:53 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: why do they do that?
2007-08-20 21:47:17 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: it's too hard on the mom to breed every heat
2007-08-20 21:47:21 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: so the female does not get to tired from having puppies
2007-08-20 21:47:23 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: that makes sense
2007-08-20 21:47:34 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Not like birds
2007-08-20 21:47:36 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: I"m sure puppy mills breed every heat
2007-08-20 21:47:59 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: I am sure they do then kill the female off
2007-08-20 21:48:13 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: The shelter in SLO is 4th in the nation for not putting dogs to sleep, but I guess they are getting close.
2007-08-20 21:48:18 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: no, they breed them till they die of exhaustion

2007-08-20 21:54:36 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Well, Jana is in Illinois and she does it
2007-08-20 21:54:50 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: I'm in Indiana  :D

2007-08-20 21:55:14 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: Linda at Lowes and Home depot they have trays with covers they work well in dryness They are called seedling trays
2007-08-20 21:55:22 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: Do have to keep extra humidity around your AV's Jana?
2007-08-20 21:55:35 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: the ones on the stand are no where near a window, one in the kitchen are about 6 - 8 inches from the window
2007-08-20 21:55:39 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: What about the adult plants?
2007-08-20 21:55:59 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: no Linda, no extra humidity -- well maybe!
2007-08-20 21:56:07 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Linda, do you grow violets now?
2007-08-20 21:56:10 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: I keep forgetting about all these aquariums
2007-08-20 21:56:22 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: It is probably a hot house at your place
2007-08-20 21:56:29 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: LOL
2007-08-20 21:56:55 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: I have 1 AV right now.  I found it in  agrocery cart and it's really different so I bought it.  I use to be able to grow them where I lived before but not in this new house
2007-08-20 21:57:05 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: not too hot, I can't take the heat, keep A/C at 68 - 70
2007-08-20 21:57:10 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: What is the problem?
2007-08-20 21:57:19 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: I would freeze
2007-08-20 21:57:33 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: I have to keep it at 72 in the winter
2007-08-20 21:57:42 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: me to Mary try 80 LOL Here
2007-08-20 21:58:07 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: Well you have to cool it down to 80 in the winter don't you Millie?
2007-08-20 21:58:07 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: I usually don't turn the air on until it hits 80 unless I am working around the house
2007-08-20 21:58:17 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: plus my bill would cause me to rob a bank LOL
2007-08-20 21:58:19 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Sun comes in my living room in the afternoon, so that does get warm

2007-08-20 21:58:41 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: I don't turn the air on until it's well over 80
2007-08-20 21:58:57 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Why are you having trouble with the violets in this house?
2007-08-20 21:59:08 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: I don't know, they just die.
2007-08-20 21:59:20 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: So far this one is doing fine knock on wood
2007-08-20 21:59:25 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Give us play by play on what they do?
2007-08-20 21:59:33 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: No Linda as we have a cold winter and my violet room is up stairs so the heat rises and keeps it about 72 to 76
2007-08-20 21:59:47 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Do you grow other plants?
2007-08-20 21:59:47 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: It's been so long I can't remember to be honest. I haven't tried it for several years
2007-08-20 22:00:05 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: I grow lots of other plants
2007-08-20 22:00:15 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: then you ought to be able to do the violets
2007-08-20 22:00:23 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: and you should try the leaves
2007-08-20 22:00:43 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: do you mean try starting leaves?
2007-08-20 22:01:06 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: do you repot your violets?  The soil they're grown in greenhouses is usually mostly peat moss -- which stays too wet once out of the greenhouse
2007-08-20 22:01:34 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: How often do you repot?
2007-08-20 22:01:52 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: every 6 months, if it's a mini then every 4 months
2007-08-20 22:02:05 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: Mine needs to be repotted.  What's your choice of pots?
2007-08-20 22:02:16 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: plastic

2007-08-20 22:03:01 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: there's a 1/3 rule with AV's -- measure across the width of the leaves, tip to tip, then divide by 3, that will tell you the correct pot size
2007-08-20 22:03:04 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: Hi Cathy!
2007-08-20 22:03:21 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: if the leaf span is 9 inches, the correct pot size is 3 inches

2007-08-20 22:07:24 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: And I think it was the door that hit her, not the train
2007-08-20 22:07:54 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: A co worker I know tried to run a train and didn't win.  Train drug his car with his kids in it for several miles, no one was hurt
2007-08-20 22:08:02 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: it was on an incline, so I just had to push in the clutch & we rolled back

2007-08-20 22:12:24 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: ok at night when they have the lights on but during the day its tuff to tell
2007-08-20 22:12:25 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: oh wow Cathy I would worry about that

2007-08-20 22:12:47 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: nice to see you, how are you?
2007-08-20 22:12:56 [Message] Mary -> VioletReflections: Millie, at the time there was no arm.  After that they installed one at that intersection
2007-08-20 22:13:25 [Message] Jake -> VioletReflections: I'm ok and you?
2007-08-20 22:13:34 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: good Mary They are now installing longer arms so no one can go around
2007-08-20 22:13:47 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: Sorry, but I need to ask a question.  My AV is 9 inches and in a 4 inch pot. Do I downsize?
2007-08-20 22:13:54 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: I'm good to. thanks.. 
2007-08-20 22:14:03 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: is it blooming Linda?
2007-08-20 22:14:07 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: no
2007-08-20 22:14:19 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: ok, I'd definitely move it to a 3 inch pot
2007-08-20 22:14:32 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: OK, so it's ok to downsize
2007-08-20 22:14:32 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: Has it ever bloomes since you have had it Linda?
2007-08-20 22:14:45 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: It was going out of bloom when I bought it
2007-08-20 22:14:57 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: if you buy already mixed AV soil, be sure to buy some perlite & mix it 50/50 with the soil.  AV's like really light soil
2007-08-20 22:15:36 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: OK, it's on my list
2007-08-20 22:15:47 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: ;)
2007-08-20 22:16:06 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: LINDA When yoy repot see how big the root ball is. If it is big enought to go in a 4 inch pot put it back . Otherwise down size
2007-08-20 22:16:07 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: AV's generally won't bloom till they're rootbound
2007-08-20 22:16:58 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: the bigger the pot the longer & more difficult it is to become rootbound
2007-08-20 22:17:31 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: I think downsizing will be good. It was in bloom when I got it but it was probably repotted before going to a store
2007-08-20 22:17:33 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: Yes that is true but the best gage is the root ball If it fills the 4 inch pot keep it their
2007-08-20 22:17:42 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: I'm having a problem with one of my smaller violets.. wackey jackie. it was doing really good, blooming and all but now it's turned yellowish and reall limp
2007-08-20 22:17:51 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: I Can't see any roots when I take it out of the pot now
2007-08-20 22:18:08 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: so I cut off the good leaves put them up to get another plant
2007-08-20 22:18:17 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: Cathy, check the neck just under the soil level -- make sure it isn't soft or mushy
2007-08-20 22:18:33 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: Why Linda is the soil tight in it?
2007-08-20 22:18:58 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: Yes Cathy sounds like root rot
2007-08-20 22:19:03 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: it's the soil it came in -- I'll bet it's all peat
2007-08-20 22:19:19 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: no not soft and mushy but the stems looked over watered
2007-08-20 22:19:47 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: remove it from the pot 7 check for root rot Cathy
2007-08-20 22:19:52 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: 7 = &
2007-08-20 22:19:58 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: what does that look like
2007-08-20 22:19:59 [Message] Millie / Ca -> VioletReflections: but that soil can be fingered off and if the root ball is till big? It needs to stay in a four inch pot
2007-08-20 22:20:18 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: healthy roots are white or creamy colored, black or brown roots means rot
2007-08-20 22:20:59 [Message] LindaJ -> VioletReflections: ok, will check before I go shopping
2007-08-20 22:21:27 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: brown roots
2007-08-20 22:21:30 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: oh my
2007-08-20 22:21:35 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: root rot
2007-08-20 22:21:39 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: now what
2007-08-20 22:22:06 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: cut away all brown roots and also take a margin i=of healthy roots to make sure you get it all, remove all roots if necessary
2007-08-20 22:22:37 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: then restart the plant in barley moist soil & bag it for 2 to 3 weeks
2007-08-20 22:23:16 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: how many rows of leaves do I leave?
2007-08-20 22:23:46 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: you should scr ape the neck to remove the brown crusty parts, then lightly brush with rooting hormone if you have some
2007-08-20 22:23:57 [Message] Cathy -> VioletReflections: ok I have some
2007-08-20 22:24:01 [Message] Jana -> VioletReflections: leave all the leaves that are healthy
