T. capitata salmon
 
Like to share another giant in my collection.....i have grown this from a large palm size plant.....just for the benefits of those in this forum that have not seen it:tongue:.....it has grown so huge that most people don believe it's a capitata salmon any more.....it is quite a heavy plant too...maybe about 2kg in mass in plant matters......:biggrin:

Sorry but i like to separate different plants into different threads as i think it would be easier for people to do a search on the individual plants if they need to do a cross reference either from this forum or from any browser......off course it's my individual idea.......:tongue: moderators, pls do what is deem fit. Thanks:biggrin:

Marvin,
Kevin has spent a fair sum funds on his plants. Kinda half of his asset is outside of his house. It's impolite to ask where!:1thumbup:

kel1ng,
Good growing, very impressive plants. Can share how did you grow it?
Do you apply any fertilizer?

Thanks for sharing.

Re: T. capitata salmon
 
yes i do fertilize my tillies every bi-weekly alternating between gaviota 63 and seaweed extract.....i normally dilute it to half of the fert's recommend dosage. but do remember not to fertilize ur tilly under direct sunlight as it can cause leaf burns.:biggrin:

Kel1ing
Thanks for sharing. Do you mean you fertilize in the evening or you move your tilly into shades after you apply fert?
So far, I hesitate to fert as i am not familiar yet.

Re: T. capitata salmon
 
i normally fertilize my tillies either early in the morning or in the evening after the sun has set:biggrin:
