Gotcha! Yeah I felt all the rhizomes on all of them and they all felt firm and were white for the most part, the one I just got a couple days ago shouldn’t be too affected i dont thik since it had just been put in there and was already in shock from shipping probably but I’ll keep everyone updated!

So I have had them in the new medium for about a day now and so far everything looks the same as it did prior, no black leaves, is this a good sign?

No black leaves. Yeah, that's a good sign. But a little soon to really tell anything about how they will do in overcoming the fertilizer and multiple pottings. They will definitely do better than they would have if you had left them in the MG peat moss.

Im hoping they do well, but today I seen some progression growth wise, a new trap opened up! I don’t think the mg pm did too much of a number on them

They’re going to look worse before they look better

Yes I understand that and for the ones that were sitting in there a week I expect that, but the ones I just recently purchased, they had only been in for about a day, so I don’t think it had the same effect on them they seem to be growing as if nothing happened thankfully

Just a update on those vfts! The b52 seems to be doing great! Lots of new growth popping up and the trap that exists starting to redden which I think means it’s getting the light it needs? In the bigger pot however with the Lowe’s rescuers they’re still in shock and have get to start producing a lot of new growth but i have faith!
