Hi there:
I purchased on impulse and planted a "Myrciaria sp., Escarlate" seed near the end of April this year. The seed went into one of the 1.5"x1.5" six-pack pots, reused from some nursery seedling purchase. "Soil" is a mix of coconut coir and perlite. I kept it covered in south-facing window on a seedling mat inside.
It sprouted early-mid June, and then a couple weeks later relocated it outside to a warmish area that gets sun until about noon, shady rest of the day. It hasn't really done much since, having remained as a tiny little sprout with a bud and no leaves since then - the bud has lengthened a bit in the past week. I read up on jaboticaba and learned this happens on occasion. I am coastal south-OC (southern california).
Here are a few questions:
1. what is the abbreviation "sp." for ?
2. what should I do next:
a) move to a 4" pot? When?
b) bring it back indoors?
c) put it in better soil mix now, such as a 5-1-1 that's acidic in the 5.5-6.5 range?
3. "feeding" plans, anything extra needs to be done for best success? I did the below mostly on a whim, was not planned
a) I gave a small drink of 1/2 strength DG foliage pro mid june
b) yesterday while watering other outdoor plants, I gave it a light watering with a normal dose of a 2-2-2 fish/seaweed/molasses fertilizer (something I picked up last year from HD, "Kellogg" brand).
Thank you for your time!
