Hi Kevin, great looking Willow leaf figs. What is your mix ratio? Looks very loose n pliable. Do you use the same mix for all your trees?
Cheers

Hi Susan. Not counting the slow released fertiliser, the ratio of premium potting mix : zeolite: perlite is 2 : 1 : 1. I only use this ratio for quick growth and facilitating scar healing. My other pots seen at the start of the video also have unorthodox ingredients - clay + sphagnum moss + slow released pellets that enable the WLF to survive in little volume of medium/mix.

DK
