Connoisseur’s delight

Things are much better now. I was able to get rid of BioTabs residues and flush the soil, plus I've added a layer of clay balls in the bottom of the pot. That Meringue is now enjoying GreenBuzzLiquids fertilizers and she seems to appreciate those. I probably won't be growing with BioTabs again, except for outdoors constraints. I'm still working on shaping the mainlining, and I use a small plate to do so. Am I the only one doing this? I've had great success previously doing this, and it seems to be the only technique that really works with that Meringue, she doesn't like being bent. Tell me what you think of this method in the comments! 👊
