And yes, this is one of the seedlings shown in an earlier post. I've transplanted a few of the larger ones up to 6" round "gallon" pots. The Inca berry plants are looking even healthier, but of course they are many weeks away from blossoming.

I'm having an issue with fungus gnats. The number of fliers doesn't seem very large, but several of the Aunt Molly's ground cherries are suffering. I've ordered some B.t. soil drench. We'll see how that works in con★★★★★★★★ with the fly strips.
Thanks! I potted them up a few days ago, and they didn't grow for a couple days, but now they are starting to grow again. I beleive I kept four plants. I hope that is enough ground cherries for two people (the other two people in my family don't like ground cherries). Do you think four plants will be enough for two people? I'm not sure how often I would the ground cherries, though. I guess, what I mean is, how much will four plants yield?

Also, how are the fungas gnats? Are they going away yet? I always seem to have them in my houseplants, and it is so frustrating!

I'll post pictures once they have considerable growth from the last photo I posted.
