Scope:
Create a productive mother in bonsai style (according to a post of my prefered forum; will check if it's okay to post external links here, then I'll insert it right away :-) ). No idea of mine, and I don't posess as much skill and experience as the origin :-).
As I am not reliable I want a trained AI to advise me during the whole process.
Detailed information s. Lazy AI report.
Germination in coconut @22 - 24 °C
Start: 27.12. D0
Pop: D4: @50 W , 40 cm ~22-24°C ; 24/0
D5. Removed the cover. ~22-24 °C ~80% RH;
D6 Signs of roots. Moved to new pot with my recycled organic soil.
D1 Will take of the fan leaves tommorow. This will look sad.
D3 Fan leaves are off. Topped again, Little leaves bend down und the two already existing main colas got bend together. Later it should be one stem.
W7D1 Fan leaves cut off.
W7D3 LST. A dumb person killed 1 branch. Fingers crossed, but pretty sure we are down to three. 😓😪💩
That's it for this and probably next week. Only small LST adjustments and prayers for the wounded one..
W7D6 Well, the branch is gone. The twin of our lost one is much smaller than the other pair😪. I thought it would need more time after I stressed her, but she did not care so I also missed the topping. As result I somehow Topped/FIMed around in panic. 😂💩 Well as she got any time she wants, we can somehow conceal it a bit later. I will stay on W7 until I start a different kind of training than topping and LST. Will take some time to recover and to put it in shape again.
W8D1 Defoliation (it's already smelly 👺)
W8D5 Defoliation. It looks not as nice as wanted, but finally you can see the idea, of very identical cuttings; on the side of the lost branch ich will take another one as backup so we are back to 4 main branches again. Until then further topping / defoliation to keep the shape.
W8D7 nice new shoots, at least 2 branches are identically 😌
W9D2 Defoliation
Left side: You can see the tip of one of the 3 main branches. Will be topped from time to time so I got 1 "lead" branch and the others wich will go up will be donors.
Middle: You can see one of the donors, This will be trained as necessary (top, fim, cut-off) everything is possible.
Right side: Small as desired, Will hopefully more or less symmetrical replace our lost one.
