Deodora

Post by paddles »

Here is a picture of a tree I've had for a few years, learning on... I have issues with wiring (Just slight ones LOL) but have finally wired the whole tree (Weeelll, most of it) probably need to remove some wire soon and rewire, sigh...

Image

I keep thinking it needs to lose another branch... not certain tho, and not certain which one..

also here is a pic, of a stick in a pot LOL which I'm about to butcher... I'm going to learn to remove branches on my own.

I removed one measly branch off the stick... trimmed and wired it a little to clean it up, and allow growth further back, will decide over the next few weeks which to remove.

I'm not game to remove any more branches of the older tree, last time I removed a branch, I must have removed the wrong one, because now it just don't work!!!


hey, I have another stick in a pot, and andrew has been shortlisted for this job, if he gets it, do you think cain would like a deodora? (we should know before next meeting)
