Default Braggs and what we should do as Hobbiests

Just got a New 35G pot and Its all Momosas Fault ,

OK i got some plants today from Mitchel and the one he sent me OMGosh you guys . Its huge It had to go into the new pot and now i had to put the smaller pup in a 5 g just so i can go get more dirt to mix up...

Blaming him LOL yupp because he sent me such wonderfull plants .

Ive bought from several online stores nurseries and so on. I have never recieved as nice a plants as i have gotten from this Group. you should all be very proud.
as a group and as Banana hobbiests ,gardeners or tropicals and so on maybe we should share pups .

i bought 6 plants from aandttropicals nice plants yes but to compair with any including the pups that took so long to get here they where not so shabby . If i ever have anything a pup any of you might want let me know .
I would be honored to share with you . I would have to say in comparison the closest ive gotten to just as nice a pups was www.worldwideplants.com My thousand Fingers ..Tammy

Sounds good Tammy, I'm glad you finally got some nice plants from me! One of these days I'll make some room and twist your arm for a Cal Gold Pup.

So has that Ice Cream started growing from the middle yet? It should start looking like a telescope in a week or so.

OH NO you dont those 2 pups you sent befor where nice.. Just took them too long to get here and that was NOT your fault...

you wont believe them when i opened the box i think you cut straight acrossed the whole thing right ?

well the middle has already popped up some . I was like HUH no way im imagining things ..
now is that big round pup the icecream or is the tall smaller pup the ice cream .

we are debaiting here since mark thinks its the tall one i think its the round fat one that looks like its been on steroids ..
what are you planting in and what are you using for fertilizer I want to know Please tell ..Tammy

as for the caligold No twisting needed the first one is yours .

Well Mark would be incorrect. The fat chopped off one is the Ice Cream. Yes I cut it straight across so anything you see growing from the middle is new growth.

I really hope you can get that Apple to fruit so you can taste what I think is the best tasting Banana that I have had.

As for what I plant them in, well it's a mix of So. Cal. clay, green sand, silica sand, homemade organic compost, chicken and steer manure, worm castings, and a few other choice EB Stone organic plant foods.

I believe you. He sent me a couple of monsters too. Wondered if he just dug up a near mature nanner tree and sent that! Definitely not tissue culture specimens!

Grin,
Mike

Hey Mitchel,

Since you are bragging so much on it and since i don't have one, do you have another Apple?

Terry
