My curry plant has already pinned 2 d ground
I planted my curry like yours. How do I know if it has pinned to the ground? It's pending to the rain that fell last

Tikkykay also make sure u mound the soil for your curry or scentleaf. They luv such. Before planting just heap soil together like a mound and then dip the base of your plant into the mound...u will see how fast they will adapt. This is one useful tip for such plants

By d time the old leaves falls off and new leaves start spotting from d stem it means ur plant has pinned to d ground.but if d leaves withers and new ones are not in sight, u will notice that the main stem has started drying off and withering

When did u plant it? Also show me pics by tomorrow morning okay?!

Alimosho is my location. I will try to use manure. That's the way I planted the curry. I am yet to see any improvement. I was told it might be because I didn't till the soil. I won't give up. I must plant ugu before the raining season goes completely. Thanks for your concern

Yea they are right. Curry,scent leaves etc are plants i know that loves nuturing and they tend to be delicate depending on how u prepared their bed

How come ur soil isn't helping matter? Where's your location?

Before planting...prepare ur soil,get chicken droppings and till together with d soil and wet it for a week. Then start ur planting.

Try planting stems with all d leaves still intact. When u buy ur curry just select the ones for planting and dont pluck their leaves. Plant either in d morning or at evening when d weather is still cool and them water
please where can I get scent leaf and bitter leaf stem to buy for planting?

That's rather strange . All you mentioned with the exception of Jute (ewedu) can be propagated using stem cutting.

You can get seeds from people that grow scent leaves now. And as for bitter leaf, so many have it that you can cut from. But it all depends on where you reside.

Seeds? Yes you can get at markets but not the stems. Simply ask around. You can cut from any grown plants around in your neighborhood.

Hi. I love shopping for flowers and shrubs from Tennessee Wholesale Nursery because they only help me find plants that grow well in my area. The process of placing an order is always quick, so you do not have to spend a lot of time on it. I recommend to pay attention to Tennessee Wholesale Nursery Reviews and you will know that they really care about their customers, so they additionally send useful information to their customers on how to properly plant the goods they bought from them.
