You know I am always into experimenting with something or the other. I have found that many of my plants (epiphytes excluded) grow way faster and seem to be healthier the larger pot I can get them into.
I got in a batch of Bletilla in the early spring. I potted them all up in 4" pots. In early June I up-potted 18 plants into 3/4 gal. pots. These were all about the same size plants. Now, about 2 mo. later, those in the 3/4 gal. pots are twice the size as all the dozens of others. This same is true when I do this with my Leopard Lily seedlings and my Euonymus 'Manhattan' rooted cuttings. I find the same thing happens when I up-pot my plumeria and air-layered ficus plants too. It appears that my adenium are doing the same thing. Those up-potted the soonest are all larger than their siblings.
