Fukien Shito

[It's Kev]

Been playing with this for a few months...

I posted it just for Shito and giggles but now I figured it can get it’s own thread. I gave it a hard cut just before I moved again, and also changed the planting angle a bit.

Tricky as hell to wire this little thing, so please don’t judge too hard.

Since it’s only a sacrifice branch that will get chopped off in future anyway, I figured I can have some fun with it and try something new.

And who knew that a pizza comes with a free display stand for your tiniest tree?

Might be easier on your nerves to just Grow and Clip.
Admire your determination.
If you intend to mame' frequently, why not make
the pots.
Just take a small marble of plastic clay and insert finger. Turn and
learn to refine.
Have someone fire, later on glaze and paint.

Seeds will become your best friends.
Good Effort.

@Anthony I've seen a guy doing some interesting stuff with plaster, Tupperware containers and plastic bags. Some Indian guy on YouTube.
And yeah I have a ledge on my balcony about 1 brick’s width. Mame and Shohin will be as far as I can go.

I’ll have a look and see if I can find the pottery guy’s video, might be interesting for everyone else to see as well

No holes! That can be addressed of course. And the walls are also very thick. It's interesting to see alternative options for pot construction though.

Hot and humid turned into mild, but very dry. Still have to water this sucker twice a day.

Cat knocked it down, twice in 3 weeks, this is why we can’t have nice things. Back into a bigger pot for a while to recover

I like having plants in the house. That is why I don't have cats. Learned long ago, one or the other.
