Break-Up Cake Auto-door

Irrai I messed up a little with the pruning, so I decided to train one main cola using main‑lining and hope it stimulates more shoots on the other side — fingers crossed it still gives our little cake a nice, round shape 🎂🤞.

Irrai Luckily a few shoots have popped up, which I can gently bend and train down nicely 😋. She spent the first few weeks growing under the two Stixx, and when the weather settles and remembers that summer’s coming, they’ll move into larger pots and head outdoors ☀️🌿.

Irrai Considering I handled her a bit rough at the start, she’s bounced back nicely and is developing well again — resilient little trooper 🌱💪🙂.She spent the first few weeks growing under the two Stixx, and when the weather settles and remembers that summer’s coming, they’ll move into larger pots and head outdoors ☀️🌿.

Irrai Repotting always has room for improvement—but first you have to get the ladies out of their 9L fabric pots. When roots grab onto that felt like it’s their new home, it’s… a mission. 😅 I’m just hoping they made it through with no major damage, and after almost 3 days, I finally went in for some corrective touches so I can see what’s really going on in there again. 👀🍃 I’ll be honest—I wanted a better shape for her… but then I would’ve had to be more careful and patient, and I wasn’t really in “pause and wait” mode. 😅🌱 With this one, I left a few shoots standing. I’m gently starting to train some of them—slowly guiding them toward a more horizontal growth pattern. 🌿↔️ That said, I’m not 100% sure how far I want to go, or whether I might be turning the whole thing into “too much” for her. 🧠🤔 So for now, it’s going to be a wait-and-watch approach. 👀🍃 I’ll observe how she responds, then make it a situational call—intervene only if it makes sense. ✅🌱
