Yah its in a standard 4 inch pot. When iwatched her pot it (which was weird ) it had a nice 3 plus inch tap root on it Soo in 6 months here comes some root cuttings and leaf pullings ...for now ill try to leave it be....was per watering. Should i let it dry out a quite a bit and take off thetop dressing of spag she put on there?

...probably not, I would just leave it and let it 'settle in'. Keep it on the dry side. I'm not sure I should be giving Ceph advice, I just got my first one in April, I think. I've gotten some more since then (Bonfield, thank you very much!). After dividing them up I've got about 13 now! What's important though is that I haven't lost any, that's why I answered your post. There are others here that are WAY MORE QUALIFIED for sure! Happy Growing, Gabriel.

...I was feeding mine ant larvae when they were available from my garden (not anymore). They really seemed to boost their growth!
