The ravenous things grow and eventually outgrow their grow area. I received a few baby seedlings from Mike Wang in 2011 and I potted quite a few up in a tub. They&#8217;ve done really well over here and I&#8217;ve been busy separating them into their own pots! Aw yeeeaah! A few of the seedlings really took off as you can see below. There were a also few stragglers caught under the big dudes, and I&#8217;ve\u00a0set them aside to give them more room to grow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A few folks asked me about my potting mix with these guys. I just peat and a course grade of horticultural sand. The new mix though is peat\/perlite and little bit of sand. The plants don&#8217;t seem too picky and do well with various combinations of peat\/perlite\/sand.<\/p>\n<p>Awww&#8230; they look so&#8230; innocent right now.
