How slow is "too slow"? My plant is nearly two weeks out of the ground. After starting out well it is only about the size of a regular coffee mug.The second true leaf is about the size of a dime and has been barely moving over 3 or 4 days. I think it has been too cold on average.Unfortunately it will be cool and cloudy for a least a few more days. I would like to keep this plant if there is a reason to considering this growth pace?
Thanks,
Russell

It's what is happening beneath the ground that matters..Keep the soil moist, and give it a little time.

I have one like that as well but I planted it in the ground anyhow, The plant is very healthy and still growing but just slow. Just out it intot eh ground and let it go

I'll pay double attention to the soil moisture, I think I was O.K on that. It was suggested in an email to give it a a little drench of fertilizer and mist frequently with weak miracle grow solution. It did much better today.
Thanks again.

Good luck w/your slow plant,Pirate.
