My little setup for the while being

6 years ago

Not Ideal by any means but it seems to work well enough. We are looking to buy a house so it will be much easier afterwards.


My calamondin was rescued from an Unlit Garage below freezing for several days, It bounced back with new growth. Last week, I cleaned it up, downsised the pot because it was in a 5 gallon grow bag with heavily eroded soil structure and a really crooked tree the roots looked good but only filled about 2.5 gallons of soil of the available 5. Right now it looks very happy in the 3 gallon pot , I monitor the soil humidity closely and in a pot that size it could maybe double in size if i'm lucky. last year it doubled in size and was mainly neglected by my friend.


My second tree is my ponderosa that takes a beating every year. This year she was showing sings of stress and a few mites, my cousins cat decided to take matters into his own paws and yanked it on the floor destroying the clay pot lol. I thought to myself screw it, I pruned it back to have it be prettier in spring, cleaned out the roots and back in the window it goes.



They both get around 8 hours, sit 2.5ft over a baseboard (I know ,I know... what can I say), get misted regularly and my calamondin seems ready to have new growth soon :).


how are y'alls winter going?
