Mid-week update after heavy watering

Is more water better? Well, let's see. I watered all white patch samples with 50ml on Monday except #8 (which is under plastic cup) and #9, (which was still wet from the original heavy watering two weeks ago). The result two days later is dramatic and not good.

#2 started to have the leaf ends to curl and shrivel:


#4 appears normal:


#6 fell on the ground:


The unwatered (under cup) sample #8 remains healthy:


The unwatered (from initial heavy watering) sample #9 continues to struggle, but still appears growing:



And finally, watered with 50ml sample #15 appears to be doing fine:


With one more confirmed death of #6 the total surviving count is 5 out of 16 for the white patch. It appears that by the week's end one more is going to die (#2).
