RX?

If it hasn't been repotted, give a slightly larger pot using African
Violet potting soil. Examine the plant for mealy bugs or other
insects. Make sure it has drainage. Give it early morning sun or 2"
from fluorescent grow lights. You should see it blooming profusely in
a few weeks. Give it regular AF feedings.

Thanks for detailed recommendations.

Brings up a number of questions:

1. Why is early morning sun better than other exposures?

2. What is "AF feedings"?

Thanks
