24-1. My New LIME PLANT - 24 March 2024

24 March 2024

I bought a new lime plant 
from 628 AMK flea market stall Lol

$10 and quite healthy!

the uncle said i have to prune the fruits away so that the plant will grow faster and stronger. he also told me to repot the plant and add more soil. so i did...

BUT after i bought the plant, there was a freaking heat wave and dry spell.... the plant was struggling inside the dry soil!
