Yes, I am slowly adding leaves, but there is another issue. I had only old almond leaves. I have just received a new fresh batch of organic ones yesterday. It warns against adding too many on the package, and gives a specific amount. I have not added any of the fresh ones yet. I might have some alder cones, but again they are old. I was thinking of buying new ones also. I am not familiar enough to know what other leaves might be ok to use? I do have live oaks in my yard. I do also agree she looks to be clamping her tail. I am keeping the temp at 78F, I think that is 26 to you?
