Another attemp at a quick dynamic fig

Post by Hornet »

Here is another one of my attempts of developing a dynamic fig quickly. This one has rooted far better then the other i posted up, rooted evenly right down the slpit tunk. I decided i'd repot it out of the sand it was rooted in, into a more nutrient rich mix. Has 5 healthy shoots on the upper part of the trunk so far, hopefully it throws more down low later on. Anyway here are the pics.

Will let this grow wild untill next season i think, then put into a larger pot or box and raise it by a couple of cm's to expose some roots. Ill probably end up chopping off the top in the future to give bettwe taper aswell
