the hempstick suffered because of the wet cocos. wanted to mold so taped it on the outside of the pot. but the arbutus need more support

the blossoms opened and close sometimes again
but since im a big arbutus noob, im not sure about the pollen. i gave them definately a gay party.


but i handed out the pollen there too



and actually its with 4 supporting hempsticks now (one is moored horizontally on the top of the others)

i repotted her today after finally the spring came.

i took composana soil 80% mixed with plagron coco 20% and hope she will enjoy the new pot.
so its not a completely coco grow anymore...
also i took the weedstick support away to give her more professional supp.
and soon she should get used to take more sunlight instead of my HPS.
oh and still only blossoms.
but i hope she really like everything to let her out to the balcony or garden someday
