Default Re: dormancy in the pot?

OK just typed out a long reply and somehow lost it before I could hit submit so here's the short version!

basjoos were too tall and weren't doing well inside- they are now dormant in the garage unprotected.

zebrina and large clump of enano gigante are doing amazing, no problems there.

large cavendish looks very heathy but leaves are emerging before the predecessors are fully open and it looks like its starting to choke itself. not sure how to fix this, I guess its just a race against time to get it outside again.

the easy ones, high colour mini and super dwarf cavendish are actually doing the worst. essentially dead and not growing, each has put out pups which are actively growing, however.

everything else seems like it will probably make it.

white bird of paradise grew too tall and not strong enough while looking for light and some of the larger leaves are now falling down.

inside for almost 4 months, with only 2-2.5 left, providing we have a nice spring. however, we'll probably have to pay for such a nice warm winter with a cold freezing spring all the way until June!!!!
