It's been a while guys!
My plants are now at more or less 2 years from sowing, and putting on really good growth currently. Went from 25mm to 40mm over this just ended summer (Australia). They're now in 90% of full sun, basically just a clear rain cover over them, and in an all-day-sun position.

Pic 2-7 – current pics of my 3 plants
Pic 8 – 12 months ago… goodness they have grown!
Pic 9 – fresh germ
Pic 10-11 pot used
I sowed into these large pots and have not touched them since. I occasionally sprinkle some slow release ferts into the pots and water with liquid fert when I can be bothered but mostly just get a hose watering 2 times a week.
Peak growth is definitely over summer, but here in Brisbane at least, they do still grow over (our very mild) winter as well.

It looks very healthy and happy, what substrate do you use? Also do you know where you got your pots from? I had a lot of trouble finding large pots like that in Australia
Looking superb! Mine also grew a crazy amount from year one to year two, I guess the rate just really accelerates past the 1 year mark
I think the fastest a male Welly will cone is 2.5 years – if that’s a male, the time could be soon, it looks very happy!
