# Hey! I am new to gardening, total beginner. I started a strawberry…

_Posted by Kayde on 2024-04-22_

Hey! I am new to gardening, total beginner. I started a strawberry grow kit 2 weeks ago and they have been doing well until today.. yesterday they were growing fine (last pic), today they are drooping and leaves are a bit brown (other pics).. does anyone know what’s happened? Underwatered or overwatered maybe? I can’t think of anything else it could be..?

I’m a noob still too but i had 2 types of seedlings that were drooping and watering them made them perk up. The eggplants did it right away but my marigolds took a day.

Yeah I’ve watered them when I found them like this and I’m gunna water them again before bed and hopefully wake up to them perking up again, fingers crossed
