In the front yard I had an old above ground Koi pond that I had a decent size Largmouth bass living in, fed her a few times a week with a dozen gold fish.
Well right before transplanting this bush (when it was a little more than a sprout) to the large pot it's in in the pic. A racoon family had trashed the pond in search of food and the stress must have killed my bass later (they didnt eat it, and they love fish).
So I put her (fish) in a 5 gallon bucket and used a flat head shovle to cut her in 3 pieces and then dumped her in the bottom of the pot, transplanting the baby above, After about 2 - 3 weeks of regular growth I say this plant EXPODE with new veg, on grow faster than anything I'd ever seen before her!
Oh, I had also later thrown in some redworms into the pot too. lol
