Ginseng ficus question. Got a few months ago walking through Walmart and it came with garbage garden soil. Was paranoid so I decided not to change the soil out. In the same time my tiger bark ficus gotten the same day has exploded with growth as has every other tree I have. My full setup has yielded really positive growth. I decided to change the soil on the ginseng and it had roots but I was surprised how little. The tree has had new buds that have been waiting to fully sprout it seems like for over a month. It's at a total standstill but leaves aren't dropping. Would putting tree under a plastic tent help? It's the only tree I have that hasn't grown basically at all and the lack of roots were surprising. Every other ficus I have has added a good 4+ inches of growth in the same time frame.
