Hey Zero, do you ever pour coke into the pitchers to make it grow faster.

It's nearing the shortest day of the year here and nightime temps are 56F/13C inside where I grow this.
my truncata grow faster as they grow larger. Once you get past that 6-8 inch size they pick up speed in growth:)
more piccys, you can see the 6inch pot in the background. I really need to repot this;)

So how many types of truncata are there?Mine dont have wide peristome like in the picture.I have seen some truncata are fat and some are long.
