Inspired by (Little Champ)

Well i was so inspired by Jarad's Little Champ i thought it was time to pot up my P.J Fig:)
Should make a nice little Shohin in a couple of years... came from Bunnings and believe it or not but the pot was mostly dirt WTF

I didn't end up using the little rock

It will go absolutely bonkers! Make sure you feed it and water it plenty. If you chuck it in a bigger pot it will go even quicker. I put it in the smaller orchid pot last winter to slow it down a little. Now it will be going into and even smaller pot.

Keep up the good work mate!
