I use bottles too...Though when i put seedlings inside about a week or 2 they're new leaves start to brown and so does the leaf which has not unfolded inside too...Now it is recovering

Robert,

Are there any holes at the bottom of your bottle for drainage? It seem to love it this way.

I'm surprised such a large amp can fit in that little bottle, well done! :biggrin:

By the way, could you upload a pic of the entire plant? I'm curious how tall the plant is.
