Default Re: Which is better pup or tissue culture?

Ive grown both. My tissue culture plants grew from 2 inches high last december, to 13ft of pstem in just one growing season. Of course im in Florida, and pushed them hard on fertilizer and water. I have 3 pups that were about 2 feet tall when I received them from another forum member in mid May, They are all about 8ft of pstem now. I think the main thing with TC plants, is they are slow in the beginning, and require gradual acclimation to the outdoors, however pups can sit around doing nothing for a month or more after being seperated from the mother corm. It all depends, but both methods are result in good plants if properly cared for. Just my .02
