Well, both have recovered and grew a couple inches since the major defoliation I did last week. It's almost like I didn't even touch them. Maybe there l they're just meant to be bushy. However they definitely need some water. I'll be watering these and my durban poison clones that live with them today.
@prepelado, I completely agree! Sadly this was a curiosity plant and I had to keep up with my perpetual cycle or 3 different cycles of plants will get thrown off and over grown. If I choose to grow this again it will have to have its own space. Thanks again, everyone's unbiased opinion helps better everyone's grows!
