Jon,
I suspect you’re right… when the droopy coriander went to the Great Garden in the Sky we discovered the ‘soil’ was simply a medium to hold the roots, no actual dirt in it!
It looked like soil but was just granulated ‘stuff’. A fair amount of what looked like polystyrene beads, some shiny gold-coloured bits and what I think was grain-sized bits of recycled black plastic.
Next time we’ll re-pot the coriander immediately … using real dirt.

Ahhh.... grown in a medium and feed with a hydroponics mix, the poor thing starved to death. When you removed it from the medium, did it have a proper root bundle or only one or two white roots? That will indicate how long it has been grown like that, hydroponics only have the white water roots generally. Easy enough to move from soil to the hydroponics system, it takes a very strong plant to go the other way ....

Ray, I discovered the same hydroponic time mix in the pot of parsley that I bought, it's also in the kids' plants that were given away recently, I bought the parsley last Monday, hoping it survives.
Hope Joy is improving & feeling better.
