Re: Cocoa??

From: mburack at mindspring.com on 2001.09.05 at 01:42:08(7340) I have it T. cacao in a 6" pot with nothing but common potting soil and I fertilize it when I remember when it is there. I have only found that it is very slow growing (for me) and it likes plenty of shade.

(cocoa tree) I thought with the expertise on this list someone might be able to tell me what kind of potting mix I should keep this in. (It is currently about a foot tall and still in the original 4 inch pot) Thank You Bill Weaver bill_weaver@hp.com
