Set fire to your house. :oik!:




PS - Keep an eye on it, but it ain't bugs.

The last pic with the hole is where you may have damaged it when young, the rest looks like a bit of overferting maybe ph balance.

Just keep doing what you're doing, she looks cool.
hahah

I did this when I was younger

thanks, will keep an eye on it

vermiculite isnt the best idea as an additive to coco imho, it retains too much moiisture and can hold on to nutrient causing lockouts further down the line.
