Early Stages 1st week 1st Attempt
I had a AK 48 cutting which I planted outdoors in a loads of nettles and long grass, it appears to have rooted straight away
I then decided to move the plant pot to a safe location, I noticed leaf damage which was caused by the slugs and spiders so I gathered it was a NO NO!!
I resulted in the idea of hanging the plant pot from a tree, similar to the hanging baskets, this should eliminate the pests from the ground and with it been higher I thought it should be more hidden from the public.
As the plant is still in the early stages the surrounding of the plant pot has been covered with a plastic bottle, this will resolve the midgets and greenflies problems and also make it concentrate on the roots in the early stage.
I also came up with a idea of a wheel attached to one of the branches < Pulling system > so when I want to look or feed her I can pull the rope to lift her or lower her.(Saves climbing the tree every time)
I have attached some photos of her and the place where she is and what I have used for the pulling system.
I will update her every week with my weekly updates and pictures.
Any thoughts/Ideas ???
