Bruce banner #1 & #2

Both are growing well but #2 is a behind by a little, #1 is 3.5 in. tall and #2 is 2 in. tall. Exited to see them doing so well and can't wait to see what they will look like at the end of next week.

-BB 1 is doing good, growing quick and strong. Its about 4.5 in. Tall and standing straight. -BB 2 is far behind and had a rough week. It started growing its first leaves but they shriveled and fell off. Although that happened it has started its first full leaves and is making a comeback. I have started calling this one "baby Brucie"

-BB #1 is making great progress and is 6 in. tall/11 in. wide -baby Brucie is making a comeback. It skipped the first leaves but is now growing two branches. Still only 2.5 in. tall/2 in. wide -im hoping that they both keep going at the rate that they are and that Baby Brucie makes a full recovery by the end of next week. Also they are in different pot sizes right now and will start putting the size in on the diary when they are the same

-11/16/22 --BB #1: removed some of the shade leaves to open up space for the branches that are growing --Baby Brucie: removed a single leaf of of both the new branches to open up space for the top of the plant. This plant looks like it self topped. -11/19/22 --BB#1 is now being called Big Bruce. Looking a little down and droopy but I think in a few days it will be back to loving life. It may be in a down state because I removed the three sets of shade leaves but it should make a full recovery soon. --Baby Brucie is still trying its best. It now has two mutated spade leave at the top and looks like its trying to grow more branches. I think I may try doing a main-lining for the first time with this plant.

-11/26/22 --big Bruce is getting bigger and stronger. Has boosted sense the removal of the shade leaves. Some of the upper branches are lagging behind. This plant is 9 in. tall. --little Brucie still looks like it topped its self but thats okay because I have now started main-lining it.
