They sure look good! :-) Are you planning to "train" them? Pinch, prune and/or wire them?

i want to train them without pinching and pruning, i wanna try wiring and root training for this

so here they are after 100 days of being born, time to play with them......

Jericson Pastor, what happened to the compact arabicum seedlings in the photo from last Thursday? Are those the same as the 100 days old seedlings? If so, they certainly have put on some vertical growth! But I am looking forward to follow your experiment. :-)

they still in the seed flats, they're out of control right now, i don't wanna bother them, they on full stride at the moment, i need to check them tomorrow, they probably thirsty already, those 8 obesums took me almost 1hr to finish lol, and now i have 36 arabicums needs to be transplanted in 2 weeks, but im not gonna train them yet, just gonna put them in a 2inch square pots, so that they can still fit inside my grow room under the leds lol, my last picture of the arabicum seedlings is july 1, ill try to take pictures tomorrow,

Yes, transplanting Adeniums can take awhile. Been there, done that. ;-) I have another 40-50 seedlings soon needing more space. I will wait about two weeks, before I repot them.

just plain and simple, if we got plenty seeds, and never stops to sowe, means tons of work later on lol, im constantly sowing super hot pepper seeds just to have a back seedlings whenever the big guys outside decides to die on me lol, i need my fresh peppers for my addiction to hot foods lol,my 2 cubic yard of soil blend is almost out also, i need to start collecting the mixes i need again lol, now i have to tweak it for my adeniums

Very nice, Jericson.

thanks cynthia

Jericson

Hi, as you have obtained the dwarf form on adenium ?

I was a little skeptical when you first showed the fabric pots, Jericson. They actually look nice the way you have them staged. Nice work!

Tracy

i love fabric pots and my plants love them, fabric pots helps plants not to be root bound and to get root ball, when roots touch the fabric pot and penetrates to the pouch, that tip of the root will die out, and new feeder roots will keep appearing so on and so on, i want to see the results for adeniums if its gonna be a big difference, but still a long way before i can see it in my experimental obesums

Jericson, this is very impressive.

Marie

thanks marie, my hands are getting itchy to transfer my first batch to there new homes, but i dont wanna bother them while they still on stride

my experiment with coral sand, growing some algae, but seedlings seems to be ok, i forgot about being its white and wet and there's light that's when algae thrives, but oh well, they look ok to me

the cutest of them all at 5days young

Jericson, do you leach out soil/sand with Epsom salts and Calcium Nitrate to get the salts out?

Rick

no, just rinse them like 20x, and they are outside my house, so its rinsing every-time it rains,

wasn't able to wait till they hit 90 days,since im gonna be busy those coming weeks so transplanted them at 80 day's

Jericson,

You have hundreds of photos in this post that it takes forever to download. And while it's downloading the texts/media are jumping around trying to settle in, I guess. Although I enjoy your pictures, I am afraid of crashing my computer (don't think it would). So would you kindly create a Part II or something to this post? I'm not asking only for my own convenience, maybe others are having the same issues?

Again, I enjoy your pictures. But in the time it takes to download this post, I could have transplanted an adenium or two. :laugh:

Indeed. And it takes forever to scroll down to the newest post. ;-)

Houzz really should do something about the thread structure. What about a simple nice "page x out of y"-structure with, say, 10-15 posts/replies per page?

To quickly navigate to the newest post I use "control" + "end" keys. But even at that, the hundreds of pictures on this post delays the process.

On one of my posts I have 109 replies but not as many pictures, and on your post, you have 157 replies so far but there is no delay in downloading either. I believe it is the number of pictures and "bytes" or pixels or something per picture that causes the traffic jam.

Anyway I put in my $0.02 worth...won't be looking at this post again.

Jericson, your garden with all of your plants is quite amazing. Your recently potted Tha Soco's have leafed out so quickly. This new acquisition is simply out of this world. I can imagine how wonderfully it will do for you. Really would love to get one of these. Thanks

Rick

ok ill make new one, sorry my computer loads extremely fast, and wifi so it doesnt bother :)

yea the soco just pumped out new leaves rick, but my twin tower turning yellow but shes alive still

Erickson what kind of adenium is that you get? The ones with purple ish leaves and a kind of reddish pink orange caudex. They look real nice. Can you please help me with my adenium and how to train roots? Your plants look very healthy and high quality that's why

I know this is an older thread but it answers so many of my questions, I just wanted to say thank you. - J

Well, it’s taken forever and a day to get this thread to load all the posts, now I’ve finally got to the end of it I’m sitting here wondering..........was it really worth it? Didn’t spot the 200+ posts, lol! Glad you found some useful info JSTropic!
