    Anyway, in my case, I need to re-pot to expose the roots so it is a continuous thing.

    Thanks for the advice...........

    Shouldn't you pluck out the plant and remove some of the roots? Alternatively you can cut the roots as is and let it rot inside the pot. Some people do that.

    These are newly planted snow peas seedlings for winter and the pots are too big.

    So I only replaced 3" of top soil to them

    I have neglected my garden lately. Lost quite a number of plants in the recent heat wave. Not too worried since I really have too many plants. Those palms keep sprouting all over my gardens. Used to collect them and give them away. Nowadays I just throw them into the garbage.

    I am happy to report that the pots of azalea I bought last CNY are still doing well. However, the chrysanthemums have gone to meet its maker.

    A sight for sore eyes. I have two of these trees in my garden but they never went above 3 feet. Yes, of course. They were neglected. ~~~ No, I think one of them died some years ago, probably...

    If you had sent them to the ICU Dept, the story maybe different.

    Recently, I went to look for my orange tree. One of them is about four feet now and not looking good. The other one rebelled by turning into a brown stump, the nerve of it!

    I have to renovate to make room for another car. This will make my garden even smaller than it already is. The worms won't be pleased. I am wondering if this will even affect the worms. ~~~ *thinking* ~~~ I guess so. They'll have less surface area to come up and breathe.

    Please be careful not to upset the worms, they may protest!

    P/S: Have you ever seen a yellow worm?
