OMG!!!!! EXPERIMENT RESULT! YES add alfalfa to the tomatoes' & ground cherries' potting mix!!!!! *HUGE* difference for those with / without alfalfa!!!

Lately I had been noticing that some of the tomatoes and ground cherries just weren't very well -- they were soooooo slow growing and still tiny, whereas others were much larger and better.

Well, only today did I think to have a closer look.

Sure enough, ALL of the ones that are so small and slow-growing are the ones from which I omitted alfalfa in their potting mix!  ALL OF THEMMMMMMMM!  Not a single one that didn't get alfalfa is doing even remotely well!

For the ones that had alfalfa in their potting mix, almost all of them are doing quite well.  A few are slower, but still way bigger than the no-alfalfa ones.

I am shocked and amazed at the huge difference!!

So, today I pre-soaked some alfalfa pellets and put them over top of the ones that didn't have any, and gave a watering.  Hopefully it's not too late to save them!  We shall see!
