That container looks great 8), are you going to trial coco peat in one?


How is the citrus plant doing? Any growth or is it too early to tell?

F&F, what you got in the vermiculite....?

Ask mainly because I've been lead to believe it holds lots of water and am wondering if you struck any signs of root rot....

Then again citrus trees do like lots of water I suppose....
