This is something I’ve been meaning to get round too for a while now. It was never a very interesting planting, and not very interesting trees, and not a good soil mix, and generally just needs revision. So it’s time to repot, so I can undo the mistakes of the past.

Problem 2: thin, boring trees, except the one on the right.
Problem 3: so much stone
Problem 4: the pot is way too big for what’s in there.
Problem 5: the soil mix is terrible (which you can’t see yet, but stick with me).
I hauled it to the bench and started exposing the roots.

Here’s the soil mix. Looks like bark, stones, charcoal, diatamous clay, and scoria. It was very dry.

Cleaning time.


Rebuilding the forest but smaller.

Add a cover and call it a day.


And the solo career.
