Give em time to get some roots grown, once she has enough she'll switch to growth mode, you'll see a difference by week 3 :)

And don't go pestering, touching, feeding, moving, leave her be and she'll reward you later :)

patience, glasshopper :joint:

peace:p

all good,they have cracked,you have potted them.
keep them warm and dont let them dry out and you should see them in a couple of days.
