Mitch, were your plants subjected to any cold weather? If I use any compost at all and the plants are exposed to temperatures in the 40's or below, I get horrible stem rot and lose almost everything. I have the theory that compost or organic fert recipes for media are dependent upon warmer temps, to culture the right kind of bacteria.
