Bonnie, avpat and anyone else I told I would send out boxes on Monday , I lied!!! Just talked to the computer tech and he is having trouble moving my thousands of pictures over to new computer (but I have to have them).

Therefore, I probably won't have a computer until the middle of next week...
There is only one good thing that has and is happening because of no computer! I am working every single day on my plants.

I flushed all my streps yesterday...took me all day and today (and this weekend) i am repotting all avs or at least flushing them with clear water. This little project will take at least 3 days.
I miss all of you so much...very much!!!!

PS I am not suggesting that everyone needs the size pots I keep on hand but here are the sizes from Cape Cod.
21/4" rounds (very shallow and great for putting new babies from leaves of any size av and excellent for all minis for quite a while...many many months)
21/2" standards
3" rounds
3" standards
4" rounds or the one which is much shallower than a standard.
Along with solo cups, I am always able to grab the right size pot...you will be shocked as you grow how quickly you can use 100 of each size...

Have a great weekend and I hope i can come back to my brother's house to use his computer...
