Thx. I glued them with "pattex" 2-component glue for outdoor use, extra strong. Something like 28kg per squar cm. That is easy for the first connections. Still considering using an outdoor gellike glue to push in the bottom. The pattex stuff comes in tiny tubes and can only be used for touching points. I prefer to really fill the voids.Nice joins. They look quite natural.
What have you used to join these?
The original plan was this weekend or so. But considering the pots are now pieces of ice, I will have to wait a little.Keep us updated when you add the RO to your R!
That sound like a glue we know as 'Araldite' here. I glued some rocks with it about 20 years ago and still holding.I glued them with "pattex" 2-component glue for outdoor use, extra strong.

I heard that's some kind of hair spray?gorilla glue
I’d be concerned about the longevity of a ‘urethane glue in a wet environment because polyurethane is somewhat soluble over time whereas epoxy isn’t. It would need to be mechanically separated. Water ingress with lots of freeze/thaw cycles may do it or root penetration perhaps, but I doubt it very much.I've had good results filling gaps between rocks with gorilla glue. Its expands and fills the gaps and seems to hold tight as well. Just need to be careful it doesn't expand too much where it might be visible. Had this happen the first time but it was really easy to clean up after 1/2-1 hr when it was tacky but not set hard.
That story made it out to Germany?I heard that's some kind of hair spray?
Na, I only hear of gorrila glue as a non-self-inflating substance. So I did a bit of a search on different types of gorilla glue and somehow the web is plastered by some stupid girl using the stuff on her scalp and becoming a "poor her hit" even making big money in donations.That story made it out to Germany?
All alive, except the arakwa maple, even thougfh we have had very strong winds and a cool spring this year. I opened them up in early winter, adjuster roots, trimmed and replanted. 2 more years before the roots are anywhere near settled.@leatherback any updates?
