Showing off seedlings

Post by Kyushu Danji »

I'm a pretty poor uni student, and so alot of the plants I have are just collected seedlings. I wanted to do something with them, so decided to buy a few cheap mame pots from Japan. They arrived today, so I have been busy planting them up.

Now all I need is somewhere to put them.. :D

A bigger pot for now, these guys really have to have more root run to develop nice trunks. They are lovely healthy seedlings, but a long way to go yet.
So, bigger pot, a good dose of dynamic lifter, plenty of water and they will power on, develop more girth and style in a year or maybe two.
If you are not killing plants, then you are not extending yourself as a gardener..
