Heyyy guys. So we had an insane amount of wind last night, causing all 4 of my babies to fall over in disarray (crying inside). I’m not too worried because all 4 were found in a pile of soil, not exposed. I just replanted all 4 in miracle gro. My only concern is the one stem seems to have ripped (highlighted in pic) will this affect the grow?

they’re at the sprout stage I believe..i buried them 1/2 inch deep. Anything crucial that needs to be done?? Thanks y’all.

Try plant those deeper only top tip 1" has to stick out of soil, idk if they will make it but you can try and see.

I take it they were in small pots that got blown off a table or something. The circled one is a goner but the other three can make it. It's a delicate task but if you're careful it can be done. Damp is better than wet so don't over water.

The one with the snapped stem is done for. But the other 3 still have hope. I would place them in separate starter pots or cups. Do you have the ability to place them inside? Even on a window ledge would work until they get a little bigger to withstand the rigors our being outdoors If not, the same thing may happen again.

Thanks guys. I had them in those little portable greenhouses, which was knocked over with the wind. I just firmly placed it with bricks holding it down, and chained it to my fence. Shouldn’t have the issue of falling over.

update: all four babies died the day after re-planting in new soil. im assuming they went into shock due to the fall (was quite a distance). RIP..starting a fresh batch as we speak!

Ah that sucks, they were males anyways right ;). I have been a victim by wind before as well. Good luck with the new beans!
