That is 2-5 grow cycles in your zone 5,6,7,

I am at 2+ cycles with my plants in ground.....and container overwintering in my home with a couple of other plants.

Still I do not think this plant will bloom, fruit in one season......ever.

Our grow window is 170-+ the rest is downtime...

The plant does pup though.....

I have some Viente Cohols At 6 grow cycles and still nothing......very temperature dependent.
I am ready to toss this one in the compost pile.
ORINOCOS in zone 5/6 are the go to plant for a flower .....but no fruit....LOL


But there is hope........

These are Zone 6 thoughts.....


Thoughts from the Pros.....

Wow. 6 grow cycles is crazy. I don't know if I had that much patience. Kudos to all your zone pushers!
