» AsbestosMango - indoor growing

Oh, Sweet Mother of Mercy, was this plant rootbound. I was afraid of stressing the plant, but I'm actually soaking the rootball even as I type. I've been advised against separating the plants, but one of them looks to have been so crowded out that I'm afraid it won't make it if I don't separate it. No heater in the neighborhood- I live in Vegas, we don't start with the heat till about November.

It wasn't completely dried out when I bought it, though. I lost another bud, and it (or should I say they- four plants in the pot) are still dropping leaves.

Wish me luck, and hope the new hole in your head heals well. Wisdom teeth can be a (proper term for female dog, considered derogatory for a human female).

Well, I'm off to buy another 4" pot.
