Default Re: Time to separate the pups for the Spring

Hey All!

Just a quickie question for all you seasoned pup pros out there! I just separated 4 pups off my main cormb and repotted into a compost mixture about 48 hours ago. ive given them water both days (not too much), mulched the pots, and made sure to keep them out of direct sunlight however sat least a couple leaves on each plant seem to be flopping over and creasing the leaves stems. I trimmed off some of the "bad" leaves towards the bottom, but on one of the pups that was separated, it was the two newest leaves that folded over as well.

Is this just a preliminary shock to the plant/ root system that will shoot back in a few days? right now i kind of wish i didnt cut back the dying leaves seeing they were still green... rookie mistake?

thoughts anyone?
