with temperatures down to 6 degrees at night and a maximum of 15 during the day, it is impressive that it grows at all. but with the powerful stem it already has, I have no doubt the root network must be gigantic already.
the day before it came in this pot, the pot was started with a medium strong batch of fertilizer / soil improvers with an ecc of 1250 ppm with emphasis on acti-vera, bio-heaven, alg-a-mic and cal-mag and so half ration of npk parts. but it was still enough that she got a little sweaty on some of the leaves, but seems to have come out of the crisis.
otherwise it is the weather that is the big challenge, with the low temperatures and a bitter wind from the polar regions (north) with no prospect of heat for the next many weeks ahead, I am already starting and considering a new strategy that could involve putting her into the tent, when it will be free in 4-5 weeks, but until then, she must thank, the whimsical Danish summer.

the weather has not really been with us, here at the beginning of her life outdoors. yesterday the temperature only reached 12 degrees when it was warmest and it is, to put it mildly, nothing to welcome the ladies. we unfortunately have to wait until Friday before there is just a chance of a little sun in between the showers otherwise it is gloomy rain. it is not for that, because just 4 weeks ago, we were at 4 on the drought index, so it is Denmark in a nutshell in the spring and with the wind coming in from the north or west, it must be a good sign that despite for all adversity still manages to grow.
