A question for the most experienced with Ficus:
I'm from Brazil, and here they grow very fast. I know that speed and quality don't always go hand in hand. I recently bought a Ficus Tiger Bark and I'm unsure whether to place it in a large plastic pot to accelerate growth or in a bonsai pot to control it and continue its development.
The trunk is already thick enough and doesn’t have any large cuts to heal, except for a relatively small one at the apex, which should heal quickly since there will be many branches around it. The nebari has been worked on and is well-radial, with the roots evenly distributed. All the primary branches are in the right place, but there is no secondary branching yet, and the primary branches haven’t reached the ideal diameter.
What would you do?
