I did- thank you for asking.
I combed out the roots that I could.
I went fairly aggressive.
It responded very well.
I did also set it into a larger pot when I had it outside for the summer. My fear was that it would dry out quickly being in such a tiny pot.
I probably baby them too much.
It is doing well back under the lights too.
As you can see I kind of got in a hurry when putting it back in the pot.
My tie in wire is showing and the pot front is not where it should be.
I will learn.
It was a rough winter for my ficus.
headed in the right direction now.
I may defoliate the top again in a couple weeks to allow light to reach the lower portion. Or stand it up in a second pot.
Someone on FB asked to buy some of my plants today. No these are my plants. He’s from Florida so I told me who to contact to purchase quality material. Jeesh.
