Gelberina II (in the squared pot) probably look like she does because of LIGHT and not because three pants share 18L container. You see the same pattern on the SunBream (the F1 in the same pot), but SunGlower is thick with just as little soil (if it isn’t the soil quality itself …) – 1 gallon, compared to 2½ in this squared one.
When other plants cover the light, the others that are behind will “run” in order to get on top and fetch the beams before the one closest to free rays. In this process they seem to strive for height instead of robustness/thickness. It makes sense, since light is what they love!
I may add lights on the wrong side, but those are not good looking in the windows. the best bet would perhaps be to keep one plant per pot. But again, this is my first real attempt at experimenting this. I may miss stuff if I just do according to “best practices”. Stuff taken for granted in normal contexts. But I aim for some sort of uniqueness to my know-how.
I want to transform into someone that has a say, and not just being a lousy follower that keeps asking for advise as soon as the sun does not shine.
Still any suggestions are welcomed! They will be considered, but not implemented per auto.
Until next time: Tjipp tjipp!
