Thanks Patty I will be so much more careful from now on. They are all out of the rain and out of direct sun. Most of my crispy leaves were the lower older leaves possibly lack Guess that could be one sign of lack of water moisture? Wouldn't the lowest oldest leave shrivel and dry up first? Or do I have that wrong? I did notice that two of my Hens had burned tips on their innermost rosette leaves
Lynn, are you also saying that not only water and intense sun but water and intense heat can steam cook these beauties? Do you figure it takes 3-4 weeks for a new semp to settle in? Is that true for transplanting, too?
Do you all pluck off leaves gone bad when you see them or just let them be?
Not loosing sleep or about to give up but these easy hardy plants have taken much more time and effort than I imagined they would! Does it get easier or is this a sign that I should relocate to an alpine meadow asap?
