The smaller picture is Ernie this is just after he was revived from losing most of his roots. Bert completely dominated in this time especially cause i couldn't do much with Ernie. Ernie was also getting about a liter less water and was in a different type of soil that felt like clay.
@Smokwiri, @Ferenc, thanks guys you're too kind, I'm quite new to growing so they're not that great, but it's nice to see all the support. good luck with your 2021 harvests. :)
