Last years DC pups growing fast

gmichael403 · 03-08-2016, 10:33 PM

I bought my first plants last year and they turned out great. Before the first freeze I removed the pups to see if they would survive indoors....needless to say they passed my expectations for a first time grower

You're going to need larger pots. Good job!

Yes they are going in new pots in the next couple weeks These were just holding tanks for them for the winter.They were only 6 inches tall when I put them in there...I remember thinking the pot was more than big enough at the time..glad I didnt plant in anything smaller. Alsi noticed a new pup growing this morning.

Yes..I have regular t8 flourescents in this room. I am using these for pansy and petunia seedlings i have started last month. The window in the room gets a fair amount of light for only a few hrs a day. I bought an extra set of flourescent thinking I would need to keep DC alive. Good excuse to grow more seedlings.

I do the same. I've set-up 4x2 4 feet T8's that I keep running 24 hours a day. Nanners seem to like it. They're in the basement.
