repotting kovachii
hi,
after the relative success of the hybrids I've just repotted my straight kovachii today into 'cat litter'.
This plant must be 4-5 years old and grows in the same conditions as the hybrids, although very much slower.
I'm hoping that it is what is claims to be - it was an ebay purchase as a tiny seedling.
The temperatures are probably too cool during the day, though I think the nights may be OK. It is also not too humid, being in the kitchen.
The plant looks healthy and greened up well a couple of years ago when I added some limestone from the garden. Its always been potted in a bark mix and the pot sat in a bit of rain water.
Root growth is OK so we'll see this year whether the change of potting mix makes any difference to the growth rate,
Regards,
David
