Oyziphar Nice weather , lots of sun π no rain
I selected and transplanted 3 plants to 14 liter containers. I got rid of one plant because she was weaker πͺ
I used Lightmix Bio with 2 Growing Tabs ; Biovin, Soil Starter Mix and Flower Safer (mycorrhiza)
I gave the plants a liquid booster with OPF 7:2:3 ; Fulvic 25 ; Yuccah ; Biovin liquid ; Earthworm manure extract.
