I did some repotting today, some big-pot repotting..lol
It is nice to be able to lift more than 15 lbs.! My hernia and surgery are behind me as of a month ago yesterday, the recovery period is over! The first pic is my now-big variegated Rubber Tree.
I put it into the big brown pot next pic. I made some poormans potting mix and it used almost all of it. Btw, poormans potting mix is just a bag or 2 of topsoil mixed with a bag of the nice, expensive Miracle-Gro. Here the Rubber Tree (in the 3rd pic) is in it's new big pot (it's taller than my car!). The 4th pic is my repotted Sago Palm (and a bunch of other stuff I see). There's the Rose tree from pepper, the Ditchlilies from happ and the hardy Kalanchoe from Joeswife in that pic, some thornless Blackberries from green are there too but you can't see them in the pic.
The last pic is your bigboy blister right on my big toe!
