she is beautiful, butters, gorgeous!! kudos, sir!
as far as my girl goes, well, on the up side she is still hanging in there and has actually fattened up quite a bit. but on the down side, a few days after my initial post my area was hit by a deluge that literally laid my plant down onto the ground. two of her largest branches as well as several smaller ones were broken.i lost about 2/3 of her that day and received a good tongue lashing from the old lady for having her out in that storm to help me pick up my plant which she likes to call "the other woman in my life".i began using a liquid copper fungicide which not only stopped the disease that was causing her leaves to yellow prematurely but has kept the PM at bay as well. we are suppose to have rain all week and the temps are starting to dip somewhat so i really need to be on the look out for mold this week. if she could just hold on for 2-3 more weeks i think she would be golden but chances are she will be cut this weekend if i start to find a lot of mold.
again beautiful plant, butters. wow..
here are a few photos i took today. its rainy so they are not that great. hope you don't mind, sir.
