Kris' crazy indoor garden, the last of the plants or is it?
Hey all, just to let people know I have only 3 Cacao trees left. I will not be able to get my hands on the seedpods again for another 4 years (when my plant matures). This is the plant that produces coco. My girlfriend is currently researching how to turn the beans into coco butter and coco powder. So she will be willing to inform people how to refine the beans once she has figured it out. If you are interested and want to know how to get a plant PM me.
So what’s next you ask... well I just planted up the baby papaya (Carica Papaya) Its a fast grower up to a very large height of 4 feet. Its an easy plant that will have an abundance of fragrant flowers through the year. The fruit of this plant is the red papaya that you see in the stores here. Should be easy to get the plant to bare fruit with a little care. If you are interested in the plant let me know and your name will be added to the list. Cheers!

Honestly Steve the link in the other thread says it all. But basically a warmer house by your fish tank with no direct light... but not in the dark is all good. Just keep it moist as well mist it daily. Do not transplant it put it in its final pot with out disturbing the roots too much.
Anything eles?
