Good looking tree....looks like you have a growth in this video...

@peacefulmind319 There hasn't been any new growth, but I noticed in my videos the redwood changes shape at different angles. I still need many growth cycles to get the tree where i want it.

LMAO! nice "scarf" ;)

[wolfmeditation]

@arachtation3 I don't know if i should call it a scarf. Or shoulder... something. If only I could wear it over my head like a mask.

@wolfmeditation True, would be pretty cool.

@arachtation3 They have coyote pelt hats on ebay, but their ridiculously priced. I'll probably get one once I make enough money.

@wolfmeditation PETA will be very proud of the "extra" accessory you are wearing. LMFAO!!

Sulfer reactions in soil are very slow to lower PH (months) during that time your Redwood will probably develop symptoms of sulfer toxicity, try using sphagnum moss in your soil mix or simply use mir-acid once a month when you feed. These are much safer alternatives.
