Technical Issues Fixed




Sorry about the downtime folks. The web cam started crashing Bonsai Server Central so I had to 'tweak' it slightly. I'm hoping to get a full days elapsed capture today so you can see how slowly it's moving now.

A couple of us in the office think that it should spend some time outside. I think the wind will help it grow a bit stronger because it's a bit shakey. The stalk doesn't seem to be very stable, but I'm not too sure if that's normal.

Couple of Hi Res Images included so you can see the main updates. I'm paranoid about a discolouring stalk, guys in the office say I'm worrying over nothing. Comments welcome.

Downtime




Unfortunatly the webcame died last night and I was left with about one thousand images of the triffid bonsai at 6pm. So there isn't any new elapsed footage from last night. I did capture the whole of yesterday (up till 6pm) so that will probably make it in to the DVD extras or something. Additionally, there will be no webcam this weekend as I need to take the Bonsai Server (me laptop) home.

For now here's some hi res pictures froma few angles, including a scary one.

Update to come on Monday!

Science Fiction, Double Feature...



Well you lucky lot, not only do you have a live cam of still-nameless-bonsai, but you also have not one but two updates! Comments appreciated.

Click here
to download video of time elapsed view over last night. I left the lamp on so you could see it but the bugger started wandering off towards the light. Looking at the sunlight, it'll be bent back over again today.

Could in fact be a triffid...




It's growing rather rapidly. I'm going to keep letting it grow until the stalk/trunk becomes a bit bigger, and then hopefully it will be able to survive a bit of trimming/starvation. Any body who knows about this stuff should probably comment before I kill it.

So far so good

This morning I came in to find the little fella had leaped out of its seed! Already over an inch tall. Not very Bonsai-esque.

It's Alive!


After a fortnight of excessive watering and sunlight, the office came in today to see that the still nameless bonsai tree was starting to poke through with a bit of green!
