I'm so happy they made it ! They are all already about 2-4 feet of stalk with bigger leaves coming out. I'll try to post some pics to show you their progress but it seems I was worrying too much.. certainly are tough plants !
Your plants are beasts.......do not make them Hangry!!!!!
first year they sleep
second year they creep
third year they leap
