Just curious, why did you repot it into a smaller pot? Also, did you initially use a wire to bend/manipulate the stem to get those bendy shapes?

I am using a smaller pot to get more of the bonsai look. And yes, I used a wire to shape it in the start. Also repotted it with an angle to get a broader look 😊.

Hi, thank you! 😊. You can prune them to promote more branches, if you want. They can slow down by doing that tho. I am afraid all my citrus from this series are dead 😵. I had troubles with pests, and didnt repot them soon enough, so some died of thirst 😬. I wanna start a new citrus series, but didnt have the time yet. Thanks for stopping by, and good luck!🍀

​@NordicPlantLover my best bet would be that last winter we had a very bad cold snap and out electric was out for 3 days of sub zero temperature. All my fish died but one and my lizzards had a near constant rotation of hot water bottles. I re potted it last spring. And if it's survived all this as a saplings I have good feeling about the future

@NordicPlantLover I will remember to plant the sprouted giant kidney bean flat horizontally like you did instead of vertically. I actually got dried date fruit seeds to sprout but the plant was skinny like a jumbo Sprout and never formed a young date palm. Maybe they need a much stronger direct sun intensity? I don't have that kind of sun here in the northeastern United States.

I know this seed pretty well but I don't know the English name. It is a tree found in Ghana. Young boys used to raise mounds of sand, cover with brown paper & had 2 opposing sides who will spin the seed for competition!. Also, I remember my mum used to open the seed which contained a white powdery substance, grind is smoothly, mix it with water, boil it for about 2-3 min, then gave it to my brother whenever he had an asthma attack. For months he would never have a crisis. It's called "NTE" in the Twi language.

If you are not already watering with fertilizer, I really recommand it. If it is hard to repot because the pot gets to big to have inside, then atleast the plant gets nuteients from the fertilizer. I have a lot of avaocado plants and other green plants inside and i fertilize from spring to fall. I really like your videos!

I use «Superba» from Nelson garden. It is actually for flowers and vegetables but works great on every plant i have. It is powder to mix with water. I use full dose in late spring and sommer, and halv in winter. I use it every time i water with no problems. But every other fertilizer for green plants is probably as good. I dont like fertilizing sticks because they need so much water to disolve. I personally think you should try it! Maybe try it out on just one plant and see.
